School Reviews

I previously worked at James Monroe elementary School when Carol Frye became the principal. Since she has been in her position, the school has increased with test scores, positivity of the culture has been defined, professionalism has been improved and over all the well being of the children has been the focus that has made a progressive difference. Well done!
