I have mostly good memories of coming here, but there are some bad ones. I attended here years ago, at a time when I had difficulty concentrating and would space out. Now that I’m older I realized that I did those things because I had ADHD. Some teachers who I worked with scolded me ( no name don’t worry) I thought there was something wrong so I did not want to participate in class. It wasn’t until third grade, until I met Ms. Wise, who noticed my reluctance and helped me build up my confidence to try new things, and participate more frequently. She recognized what I had and told me not to let it define me. I made many mistakes that she helped me fix along the way.( many missing assignments, unfinished tests due to anxiety) She taught me principals not just about what was inside school, but about life. For this reason I will be forever grateful. Thank you Ms. Wise, for giving me the gift of believing in myself , and for wanting to give that gift to others. You are one of the few people that inspired me to want to be an educator, and help others who need some encouragement and a gentle push.
And to all the teachers who knocked me down, thank you for inspiring me to work even harder to help others that either have learning disabilities, or lack faith in themselves.

For some of the students that have graduated or are still here in this facility remember, despite the bad teachers there are many good ones who will help you along the way, you just have to find the right ones.

my favorite quote that Ms. wise, told me I would understand one day when I got older,”if you throw me to the wolves, I will come back leading the pack.”

School teachers including principal are very friendly and helpful. However the front desk office staff is so mean. The other day I went to pick my son and entered through secure door, couple of other office staff entering same time before me and asked to come in see front office. So I just followed them and saw front office assistant. She is so mean and no respect to parents and asked to speak over phone before entering. This is so mean and someone need to speak to them to be polite and friendly with parents.

In my opinion this is the best elementary school. Ms Rochlin Ms d ms Riley ain’t bay even and me Gogol were the best. I had the best 16-17 year ever.
