The school has a great reputation. However, I have had a child there for the past three years and I am yet to be impressed. The instructional strategies are limited to cooperative groups. This seems to be the only strategy used. The teachers need to learn to differentiate their instruction. Just because the students are smart doesn't mean they wouldn't appreciate a little more variety. Every year I pray that his new teacher will be better only to be disappointed. I am trying to hold on until he is old enough to go to A.R. Johnson.
