My son attended this school last year and the year prior and is currently at the 2-5 building. The experience that we had far exceeded my expectations. I was at the school once weekly and I was always impressed at how respectful the teachers were to the students and vice versa. Not only does this school exceed academically, but they place a lot of emphasis on social skills, respect, managing emotions, cultural and religious differences and tolerance of others. My son never complained about going to school. He loved every day and his teachers both years were wonderful. I noticed that there were a few comments regarding too much parent involvement. I don't get that. Many schools would give anything to get the parents more involved. Regarding the teachers' inexperience mentioned by another reviewer. Most of the teachers are young, but seriously?! They ALL have bachelors degrees and 68% have a masters degree or higher. Judging teaching ability by age is prejudiced and inaccurate. I wish more people would spend some actual time in their child's school before they start finding things to criticize.

We could not have had a better experience at this school. Teachers are attentive and go above and beyond. Lots of individual attention. After school and summer programs are great. Parents are involved. School is beautiful. Bus system is fantastic. Just an all around wonderful experience.

My son had the best possible kindergarten experience we could have hoped for. He's in first grade this year and has another WONDERFUL teacher. He loves going to school and he's learnign so much! I volunteer often in the building and am so impressed by how well behaved the classes are that I've observed. The teachers are definitely in control and professional.

Early enrollment process is just an eyewash. They expect a 4.5 years old kid to know everything that a 2nd/3rd grader kid would know. My kid did very well in their screening process, but they just want to find a negative aspect and do not understand that Kid is a student not a teacher.
