School Reviews
5 3/8/2024
Ella was an amazing school. Unfortunately had to move away, yet Ella holds a special place in my heart. I will always remember the friendly and welcoming staff and the warm welcoming faces of the many friends I made. I loved the P.E program since it covered the basics of sports and wellness of our body. The music program was also very fun, since you''re available to obtain the knowledge of different instruments. Thank you, Ella, for giving me the best elementary school experience possible.
