I attended this school from the 1-6 grades and its impact on my early education was far-reaching. After going on to be in only the gifted and talented classes for my intermediate and high school years, where I dropped out at 14 due to complete boredom: I ended up in one of the top college and law schools in the country. This school set me up to succeed as I was a bright kid and was challenged by the focus given by my educators. The folks in administration were also fantastic as was the diversity of the student body. I am still friends with those kids I grew up with, today.

Hello all, when my child commenced school he was struggling to recognize his letters at age 4 and prior to that he attended a private Christian school. Within a month my son recognized his letters of the alphabet, which gave him the ability to spell and read. This is a fantastic school for learning, building your child's socialization and learning God's words. The teachers are patient and skilled. I have come to realize that not all teachers have the skill to transfer learning.
