I wish we had never sent our kids there. We have had vastly superior experiences at other schools.

The principal and vice principal are incredible. My son is in the Spanish Immersion program and the teachers that he has been assigned have been fabulous. He has learned SO much! The parents and PTA are also very active. My only slight disappointment comes from their ultra PC stance. They don't celebrate any of the holidays for fear of excluding people. Valentines day is considered "Kindness Day", Halloween is strictly forbidden. Instead they have a "Fall Festival" and Christmas isn't even acknowledged. It's a very minor thing, I know. Overall, I'm pleased with the faculty and staff.

It was fabulous. As a sixth grader now I’m really glad to have gone there. The full Spanish immersion program is really helpful, and the spirit of the school in general is really great. It’s VERY accepting and open to students of every race, gender, sexuality, religion etc.

School is really great and Principal Ms. Jennifer Lowndes is amazing. She is highly encouraging and knows every student name. You can always she her either interacting with students or with their parents. I never met such an amazing, great, caring and responsible principal. Teachers here are also great. Very kind and responsible. They take care of kids very well. My kid loves to go school. Not only principal and teachers staff at the front desk are also very good. They are very nice and answers your every question patiently.
