My kid graduated from this school. This is not a stem focused school; way more time and effort are spent on the arts/social studies compared to Math and Science. There are too many social studies projects and no science projects at all (even for GATE students) and there is no lab. Also, the grading system does not really reflect students’ knowledge/performance at a given point of time. The grading starts at low from the beginning of the year and ends higher towards the end of the year. This pattern repeats every year. There are very limited to no extracurricular activities like Debate, Robotics, Math/Science Olympiad or equivalent.

Amazing teachers that make a difference in each child's life. Principal is caring and has a well run school. The school offers music, running club, classes for parents, computer training, and special activities for Gate students.

The school is awesome with terrific teachers and principal. This was our first year here so i didn't know what to expect. My son finally learn how to write and was excited to go to school. Hands down Mrs. Steele is a terrific teacher who truly cares about her students and wants them to be successful in school. She met with us numerous times throughout the year regarding our son. Highly recommend.
