Great school! My kid loves it

My children are absolutely happy and thriving here. The principals are supportive and work collaboratively with parents. There are frequent opportunities to converse with administrators and teachers. I would love to see more diversity in the staff in FCPS at all schools, but Terra set is so inclusive and welcoming to the students.
