(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I came to this elementary school 7 years ago, and it still gives me good memories every time I pass through there. My years there were unforgetable, the teachers were great, the pep rallies were fun, recess was awesome, P.E. was the best. The principal Mr. Cantu, was always really nice. I would recommend the school to many parents friends and many others. Good Job teachers and staff! Keep up the good work!
