(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - EXCELLENT school - Very involved in the kids education and welcome parents to be as involved as they want to be. The school is very into letting parents being involved in almost every aspect of what goes on with the kids at school and very good about letting them know whats going on. My daughter started in Kindergarten and is now in first grade and she is on a 2nd grade last week level with her reading. She has blossomed into a very smart well educated little girl.
