This is a school that is very involved in the community. It is clear that the school as a whole cares about children's success in their future and they prepare them well for high school. There is a sense of community throughout. I am amazed by the parent involvement and the various opportunities students have to get involved in sports, clubs, arts, and extra educational opportunities.
