The Safety & Security of our Facility

Our campus sits on over six and a half acres with plenty of room for play and outdoor fun. Our most recent addition was a State of the Art Gymnasium and Performance Art Center.  Most importantly, included in this addition is an EF 5 rated storm shelter.  With the expansion of our facilities to accommodate our student population we implemented the latest in connected technologies, the Axis Camera System, to keep our students & facility safe.
