I think they need to be better organized. They need to have parent connect or something that the parent and teacher can connect with. They need to be aware of what all grade levels are doing and teaching, especially with work done in class. They need to be aware that all children learn different and just because one doesnt know at the time, doesnt mean that the child does not know the material. They need to do better period!!!!!

This is an excellent elementary school.  It is still fairly new.  The Principal is doing a great job.  The teachers are dedicated to the children.  The children really love this place.

"They have a newly built building which is absolutely gorgeous and very well laid out. In general the staff is caring, but firm. Only bad thing is that parent involvement is not encouraged. Yet!!"
