This is one of the top schools in the state and the best in the region. The teachers work hard to meet students where they are and to help them exceed academically by the end of the school year. The music and art programs are outstanding. This is a new facility and is maintained better than any in the county. Parents and teachers work collaboratively to increase student achievement. This is an award winning school due its yearly increases in achievement.

I think there is a good quality of parental involvement. If your child is above average but not quite T.A.G. material, the school does not cater to this group, so you will be disappointed. They group all levels of learners in the same group, so the slow-learners are grouped with the fast learners. The fast learners are neglected, because they have to wait for the teacher to cater to the slow learners. Also, do not get on the principals bad side. It will be held against your child. That is a fact.
