“I really didn’t know an elementary school could be this good. I’ve been thrilled, not just happy, with nine of the 10 classroom teachers my children have had. (The other one was pretty annoying.) The teachers are hard-working, very smart, kind and insightful. Principal Russo fosters a respectful, fun environment where students give their best effort. The school is well-supported by students’ families, in great part because of the confidence that the staff inspire. Special recognition is apt for David Tynes, the physical education teacher — he runs classes where children of all abilities are both challenged and encouraged. That kind of full inclusion happens in classrooms as well. ” Excerpt from GreatSchools.Org
