My son has been to 3 different schools due to moving and we couldnt be happier to finally found a school that encourages respect, reading, and molding a great child to have in this community! Teachers and office staff have been very welcoming and always answer any questions we may have. My heart is whole knowing our youngest will be transitioning to this school next year.

Wonderful school. They keep me informed of any goings on and the teachers (that I have met) and the staff help me with any questions I have and my son has improved greatly!

This school has numerous flaws. The first being that they play favorites amongst certain students and student groups. The staff was quite rude to me during my visits there, and they quickly dismissed my complaints. Not recommended at all!

We loved John Dooley!! Our son attended kindergarten w/ Mrs. Greenough and she was fabulous w/ him and all the kids and parents! My so. Progressed & improved so well in that class, they made him the first grader he is about to be!! When we moved out of state in April it was very hard for the entire family, that school was like family. We won't soon forget John Dooley or Mrs. Greenough!!

Of the 3 elementary schools my children have attended, this is by far my favorite. Their principal is incredible and constantly makes you feel like she's glad to have your kids there. I adore all 4 teachers we have this year. They have a better schedule as they don't have to base their time around buses. Couldn't be happier with our choice to get a zone variance.
