(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - My son attended school there and he gained so much that year. The teachers and school leadership are wonderful people who really love kids. They have a lot of programs for parents and kids and he got to do a lot of special art projects because they a big art grant. I think the amount of homework he had was about right. Nice playgrounds are available and they have a special swing for kids who are in wheelchairs. We were really pleased with the experience there.
