School Reviews

Love this school! My children are so excited to go to school and learn each day! They have many diverse opportunities such as gardening, girls on the run, student council, archery, and robotics. We love the small class sizes, but we appreciate that there are many activities for the students to become involved. This school is NOT part of Madison Schools, so that information needs to be changed. There has been a recent change in administration, so the person that gave a bad review may want to visit the school again.
