Review: |
This is a wonderful school. My two sisters attended this school and I was heavily involved aside my mother when activities and events. My sisters who are now 20 and 14 loved the school and everytime I attened an event it was just wonderful. The teachers are wonderful and the principal(s) over the years have just been fantastic! I highly recommend this school for not only is the aademics great but so are the people starting from the head of the school. Now my stepson goes there and I don't want to move because he would have to leave the school. |
