  • I loved this school. I want to come back and work as a secretary. When I was in fourth grade I worked for Marsha Walters as a student secretary and I had a lot of fun. My princible was Mr.Rivers and in third grade (with Mrs. Watson) he moved and then a lady named Mrs. Dejecento (I think) took his place. My gym teacher was Mr. Motter. I don't know what I'm trying to say but I really miss that school, and I wished my sister had went to it. Instead we moved and she went to Memorial. I won 2nd place at the spelling bee in second grade with Mrs. Herdon. I want to come back to this school because I miss it so much. I am almost 19 now. It was very fun and I did learn a lot, so I definatly would suggest to take your kid here.
