Wow! It''s been so long. I keep looking back at this time with nostalgia. I only went here for 2 years or so but I love the enivornment. I had Mrs. Johnson for kindergarten and Ms. Jara for First grade, which is where I met my friend Ian and we had a lot of fun together. The environment is very friendly; the teachers are great and the students for the most part are kind. I wish I could go back and I wish I could hang out with Ian again. I am 18 now.
