Grace S. Thille Elementary School
I feel that this school is a very geat invorment. i went to this school and I personaly belive that they have some great teachers whom treat there students as individulas. Also I enjoy that fact that there are many athletics in which we the students are able to be in I was personaly in many of those sports and some of the clubs that they have there at the school it is a great way to meet new friends. It is great that the students are being encouraged to join them. But I think that the school should have more clubs so that students are able to join.
