We are a Title One school where over 100 percent of the population receives free or reduced lunches. Our school is the bilingual cluster school for our area. This means any child with a bilingual language needs can attend our school for special services. We are a small pre-k through 5th grade elementary school that feels and acts like a family. Please support my students.
