My kids came here after attending multiple other high performing schools. This isn't easy. A child moving from school to school a few times presents unique challenges. However, the other schools they attended were large and they felt unseen and pressured while getting little support. This is a small town community and a child settling in to a community where students already all know each other is a frightening idea for a parent. When my kids entered this school, instead of finding they were left out, they found immediate friends because the culture at this school is that everyone is family. The kids get past that first "you're new" impression and guide the new kids around and show them the way. They help when they struggle, as do the teachers, and it's unique to each kid. The key problems they have are due to a lack of community support or resources which I don't think you can really blame on the school alone. (It's not that the community doesn't want to help maybe just that we don't have enough that can.) For now I appreciate that my kids are somewhere safe, where they feel accepted, and still feel challenged each day.

They constantly send home things that tell us they need money for something with very little notice ahead of time. After my 8yr old son got out of the hospital for pneumonia they next day they sent him home with his coat in his back pack, they have repeatedly sent them home early with no warning at all, my 6 yr old daughter was recently let off the bus across town by a driver that knows she doesnt live there. The list of BS by this school is astounding.... I could go on and on... STAY AWAY. They have a few good eggs, but for the most part, I would stay far away.
