I have had many positive experiences since joining the staff at School Lane Charter School. First, all of my co-workers have been extremely nice and helpful. Second, School Lane holds an annual egg drop experiment that is enjoyable. Last but not least, the students here at School Lane are extremely friendly and full of manners. All of these positive experiences have made me feel at home here at SLCS.
