"This is an okay school. Positives are the caring, positive environment, nice office staff and principal. My child likes going to school. Negatives are: not focused on academic excellence, eg, teaches to the middle or even the bottom, not particularly strong leadership to address waning 4th grade math scores, a reward/punishment based discipline/character program that is very ineffective for kids, like another person posted here. There are many, many activities for parents to be involved with, but unfortunately, none of those seem to be academic in nature. Far too much focus on food/social activities. Poor communication from classroom about academics, behavior, activities. Very short notice for sometimes 2 or 3 parent involvement activities per week, which is very hard for working parents and makes these kids feel their parents are not there for them. Warm and fuzzy, but not a great school."

"Excellent school, conscientious principal Mr. O, wonderful teachers. Have 2 children who did K, Grade 1, 2, and 3. Always was in Montessori schools in and out of state, but this school is the best."

"My Child attended this School. The Principal has no leadership skills. Unable to deal with any conflict. Parents run the School and are wonderful. Teacher moral is low with a lame leader. Had some Great teachers, also some very unmotivated ones. My advice look at open enrollment, Private School."
