New Hope Elementary School
trailrider: The standards are where they need to be, the assistance with children with learning issues is great. We just found out this year about the ADHD and the assistance from the school made all the difference! Thanks! The school stayed in touch with us during the whole process and gave us advice on what to watch for and how to help. I think that they went above and beyond what was required from them. I would say they did more for our child then the last school the attended. Thanks again.
