I happen to be a 5th grader at this school. ( the Student Body President too) It is a great school and all of the teachers are kind. I'm also in GATE and the program is great. They have many afterschool programs, the PE is fun, there are many teacher's aides on the playground/afterschool, and it is overall a well-rounded school.
