Great school, teachers, principal and staff! They work hard with each and every kid despite the crowding that we have experienced while waiting for new schools to be built. PTO is also top notch and does a TON to assist with the needs of the school and the students. They also do a great job of working with our Cub Scouts pack which our kids really enjoy. www.pack443.com Thanks SSES!!!! Keep it up!

If you are thinking about having your kids attend this school, THINK AGAIN! This is a TERRIBLE school! The administration is only concerned with their school's rating and the test scores. The teachers' curriculum is based on how they can improve the test scores and not what is in the best interest of the children. The administration could care less about parent concerns and they turn a blind eye to dangerous situations like the physical fights that occur on the playground. Many of the teachers and other staff are very rude and are not concerned about their students.
