Why Kingsbury: Kingsbury feels like home. From the moment that I pulled into the parking lot to tour the school for my oldest son, I fell in love with Kingsbury. I love the strong, close knit community, where everyone feels like family. As a teacher, I enjoy the opportunity to teach students in a unique environment that allows the students to interact with each other outside of the traditional classroom walls. Kingsbury also looks at the whole child and prepares each student to be a successful member of society.
