Forty-five teachers and staff assist with the education of this very diverse student population. The school colors are blue and white. Parents, staff, and community members are invited to attend. Following the School Improvement Team meetings are the P.T.A. meetings. Parents bring guest speakers in to discuss important issues as well as work hard to assist with the education of students.
Child care is provided at both meetings.
