Lena Juniper Elementary School

Jackie Bond: My children recently transferred to this school from another one in our district. The principal was very nice and even dropped in to our children's classes on the first day to make sure they were alright. This school has a more challenging curriculum and more teacher involvement than other schools in the district.
