School Reviews

My son attended this school from first grade thru sixth grade. He is now in seventh grade at Snyder middle school. I very much appreciated the well rounded education he recieved. The open pod system worried me at first but I found this to have no affect on my son. The second grade teacher found that he was weak in his reading skills and immediately placed him in the reading support program. After one year in this program he no longer was struggling. He loves to read now and has many favorite books that he reads on his own. The teachers all were very happy to keep me informed of his growth both academically and socially. I found this to be an overall good experience for my son as well as for us as parents. I look forward to sending my daughter here in the fall for kindergarden.
