I had an excellent time at Jamerson, the land I learned so much, and had so much to offer. The music teacher is just amazing. They even have a band! The only sad thing is that it is so good, the teachers and the staff are often promoted so the above and-beyond staff are often promoted, and leave the school. Truly an amazing school worthy of your child's education.
