I have been a substitute for many class sessions and I have always been favorably impressed. Great office staff, great teachers, great administrators, great kids :)

Our daughter started kindergarten last year and we have been very impressed with the school!The environment is warm and caring, the teachers are extremely dedicated and the kids learn so much!To be honest, I was worried before our daughter started the school. Our daughter hardly spoke any Spanish before starting, so I was worried how that would affect her. She has found the Spanish immersion half day tough sometimes, but the school is completely geared for teaching kids like her (probably half her class didn't speak much Spanish in advance, while one or two didn't speak much English) and she has learnt so much in just half a year.I was also a little worried about the diversity of the school. Would it be completely dominated by Hispanics? I am not a Spanish-speaker myself, so I wasn't sure I would feel at home. But that worry has long been forgotten! The community is more diverse than I had dared hope and everybody is made feel a part of the community. We are very happy with our choice to move to the neighborhood to get into this school!
