I''m a mother who''s son currently is in the 3rd grade. And he did start at the K-4 beginning level. While I do know from experience, the teachers, paediatricians, etc., he''s always been a bit advanced in particular areas like in reading, however, I absolutely give a lot of the credit to the teachers/staff there. I love the school, especially during this pandemic going on and the way of virtually learning from teachers (and the parents at home) is no small task- I can definitely see.They''re attentive and vigilant, I''m very consistent so I applied those who are in this profession and especially at the school! Before the pandemic, they all did an awesome job as well. They were approximately tasked with teaching 30 or so children per classroom give or take. And they still did an awesome job teaching my son and I think them for that. So if you''re a parent looking for your child to go to a school K4-5th grade, I am very picky myself and I am honestly satisfied with the school so maybe you should check it out yourself or take my word for it in conjunction with your research. Thank you for your time if you''re reading this...
