"The kitchen staff is really splendid. They take the food that is to be prepared for the kids (Monday) & carefully arranged the cornmeal breaded fish planks on sparkling clean baking sheets & put each tray in the ovens for hot food when the kids streamed in at 10:45. The mac & cheese was creamy & easy to eat. I'd probably sneak a hot dog cut up in mine, but it's a nice simple starch just as it is that is easy on the stomach & great on cold days. The kitchen staff are like Santa's elves preparing & fixing things so nicely. Different sauce packets & utensils are out for choosing & vegetables looked good also. Snaps were served today with the fish or Salisbury steak. Everything was put out & served pleasantly, tidy & clean. They worked well together too. I was just a volunteer today. The food tasted good & looked nice too. Glad to be there & wanted. Look forward to returning tomorrow. Pomegranates are on the lunch menu tomorrow. Fun to try different foods. Not sure how to get into them but google will know! What a pretty school & beautiful building. The auditorium is grand. Much to be proud of indeed. What an honor. One of the kids let me in after I moved my truck. Really nice. The custodial staff zipped around like Santa's elves too making things shiny & clean for all. No easy job in a large building. Good team & welcoming. Only good things to say about Binford Middle School from a volunteer perspective."

Binford employs the Arts Integration - IB Springboard, which is the flagship curriculum used in some of America's most successful schools, and, it has an administrative team and staff in place aptly capable of utilizing it to extract the very best student performance.
