Low student to teacher ratio. Approachable staff. Very good teachers. Very little of the stuck-up attitudes or cliques among parents you see in some schools.

Young, inexperienced teachers, and large class sizes. If your child has ADHD and/or other disabilities, don't go here. They do not accommodate anything outside the normal student or traditional special education students. After a while, teachers, principal, and staff no longer helpful for a child with special needs. The superintendant is very disconnected with the school and seems to have a different agenda-it's not about helping the district or kids. She doesn't even have a teaching degree nor has she ever been a teacher. VERY POOR personal skills, and is unapproachable. I would not recommend this school.

Principle Mr. Carter is great, very involved and caring. School is awesome, very new nice library and computers. Teachers are very young and inexperienced, most older teachers are gone. School replaced them with younger less expensive teachers and the lack of experience really shows. Class sizes are very large usually near 30 per (inexperienced) teacher with at least 2-3 special needs or discipline needs children in each class. My children do get straight A's, God has blessed them with what it takes to get good grades and we do spend lots of time with them at home. Other children are not so lucky but get pushed through due to "no child left behind". I am very disappointed with the politics of the new superintendent who seems to care only about the budget and her own paycheck. I would no longer reccomend this school, fortunately my children are in their last year.

From the lunch Ladies to the pricipal every one is invloved with the children. Severasal years ago we lost funding for music and the principal seen a ndeed and deveo;ped a musical for the 4th and 5th graders. we have gotten the music abck but the principal continues to do the musicals. He and the assitant principal have bee n evn teaching in in the class room when there has been a need. I see them work with excellance for this school to be the best., As well as the other employees and they have strong parent volunteers.
