The school has approximately 620 students in kindergarten through second grade. Laura Rose is the principal. The school's colors are green and white, and its mascot is the eagles.
The school was constructed in 2003 and had an "Eagle's Perch" second-grade wing added in 2007.

Students were temporarily taught at other facilities until a replacement school could be constructed on the same site.
