Alice Drive Elementary cares about its students. The school provides a safe learning environment that fosters collaboration and creativity. My son is in the second grade and I have yet to have a bad experience. He looks forward to going to school everyday. I am very fortunate to live in Alice Drive Elementary's school zone.
