(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I went to this school from K-3rd grade. I loved it. I had a reading class that taught reading radar and in 3rd grade was a speed reader which I believe is due to how I was taught. I am now 44 yrs old, and still think of my teachers and principal. They were awesome! Mr. Cox was the principal. Mrs. Fe my K teacher. Mrs. Blassinggame my 1st grade. Mrs Lee 2nd and Mrs. Stuckey my 3rd! Loved it then and still love my memories! YOU ROCK!

(4 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - A very good school to learn at! I wouldnt give it an A+ though becasue it dosen't have enough fun activites for children to learn and have fun and they need to add more things for older children to do at recess. I think the children in 6th grade should have a snack bar for children that cant eat breakfast and cant buy breakfast at school.
