Went to Parent Teacher Conferences last week. Love the teacher, not much to say about the school except that my children have yet to visit the beautiful library. Such a waste. We will be looking at other schools for next year, one that lets the children visit the library regularly.

I am so blessed to have my children in such an amazing school. They have a principal who truly loves and knows her students. The teachers are amazing and hard working. I can not believe how much my daughter can read and write for a 1st grader. I am blessed to be in such an amazing school.
