You will not find a better quality elementary school in the State. The student/teacher ratio is unbeatable, and the teachers genuinely care about the advancement and education of their students; going above and beyond their duties to ensure that 'no child is left behind'.
The administrative and support staff is friendly and helpful as well; offering assistance and information whenever necessary or warranted.
Luckily, the community is a solid and safe one where security measures are not needed, however, the school still takes precautions and has safety measures in place to protect each and every student.
A wonderful elementary school.
