There is very little in the way of basic textbooks... they don't even supply a reader for first graders... my daughter gets these little cheapo paper booklets that look like they are run off on the school copier! The administration is always whining about the budget, but there are plenty of fat salaries paid out ... I am appalled to learn that many of the elementary school teachers in this school (as well as the rest of the district) have nearly doubled their salaries just because they hold a masters degree. A masters degree is not a requirement for a NJ elementary school teacher.... we could hire two teachers for every teacher we have who has their masters. And to say that this in any way makes them better teachers is a crock... the classrooms are so cluttered with unnecessary junk, that I don't see how the janitor is supposed to clean them...as a result they are not very clean. The walls and floors are so packed with junk, I really don't see how any child can learn in such an environment. All that is needed is basic textbooks and the alphabet displayed on the wall for the children to see. At this age, they should be concentrating on the fundamentals - reading and handwriting.

Amazing school and staff. Amazing atmosphere for children and members of the community

In my experience learning is excellent. My daughter loves this school and her teacher is amazing! I have had to deal with race issues that I feel weren't handled as I would've liked, for example reporting racial statements being made and never hearing anything else about it. I also don't like not being able to visit my daughter and check in on he from time to time. You have to be elected as a class parent.
