I have enjoyed my daughter being at Roebuck Elementary. She has had some very good teachers the past two years there. They have been very creative in teaching her and very disciplined. That is a plus. They have taken time to make sure the children are learning and not get left behind. I appreciate

She learned to spell words in the kindergarten and put words into complete sentences. This helped her greatly in going into first grade, which she now reads by herself and knows how to sound out the words she has not been exposed to yet.
