This is the school you are looking for and didn't think was out there.  It is well worth the drive and the the tuition is a deal.  Our children love it and their test scores reflect it too.  Highly qualified staff that is loving, kind, and highly organized and detailed.  Each kid is important to them.  The children are well-behaved and it really is an area where kids aren't teased!
