School Reviews

Private education at a public school price. Outstanding teachers, and administration; excellent student population and strong parent support. Old buildings are scheduled for renovation / remodel, there seems to be very little that the school lacks. Diversity is a tough one because of the coastal location, property values are well above average. That said, the school curriculum includes empathy and inclusion elements, and they are highly sensitive to the national climate. A strong emphasis on love over hate, being kind to one another, and tolerance towards people with differing viewpoint.. A+ from this proud parent.
