This is an amazing school. The principal, teachers, and staff are without a doubt the best I''ve ever come across. The pre-k program is out of this world awesome! Ms. Jo, Ms. Maryanne, and Ms. Jennifer are some of the kindest and most well-rounded educators. They made us feel at home by leaving our daughter in their care. They use positive reinforcement with the kids and their naturally kind dispositions shine through in even the most challenging situations. We are so lucky to have them and we appreciate all they do!
