This school is AMAZING! I am currently looking for a home in this area so I can get my child back in this school. Very professional staff. Ms. Hughes is the nicest teacher and she truely cares about her "kids". Ms. Stowell however is not such a good teacher and she should be let go. She sticks to an older more forseful way of teaching.
