What it says it does
Our vision is to serve our children and their school in such a way that we pave the way for them to become life-long learners. We achieve this by cultivating an environment in which we actively demonstrate to our children that we are advocates and supporters of their education, their dreams, and well-being. We ensure that the most critical years of our childrens' education is rooted in involvement from parents, teachers and the community working together because if we give the best of ourselves, they learn to be their best selves.

Financial health
We do not score finances when yearly spending is very small or the return has too little detail. The ratios stop meaning much at that size.

Governance
This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.
