It's different with each teacher and each grade but it hasn't been anything students can't handle. Sometimes it's too much.

We have loved every teacher our kiddos have had the pleasure to be in their class. Teachers are fair and consistent. Sometimes communication is lacking but if you reach out they're more than willing to communicate. It's also good to allow kids to be independent and sometimes no communication is a good thing.

When was the last time you updated your information? Some of these facts are very misleading. This school has earned awards and recognition two years in a row for bridging the achievement gap and increasing scores. The administration works relentlessly to be hands on with the students and training of the staff. I could not have found a better atmosphere for my student.

Given that CR is supposed to have such a good reputation for it's schools, it is unfortunate that this elementary school does not. The new leadership hasn't made much of a difference other than to reinforce the notion that kids who are different don't fit. Sure writing is important but how about being known for meeting the needs of all kids? I will be be taking my kids elsewhere.
