  • This School is a great school in the middle of a nice and friendly neiborhood. The school is clean and there are always Teachers present to help parents and children. My son has had Great Teachers since he started School is now in 3rd grade. I am greatful for all they have done for him. He loves to go to school and enjoys his class. His favorite Teacher was Miss O. Marquez she was very involved and took control of her class. Keep up the good work.
