We just adopted a 3 1/2 year old from Russia and the teachers at Consolidated have been ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS! My son has progressed so far with their assistance.

I'm not sure where that one poor review came from. I have had 2 children go through this school and one currently in 1st grade. Of the eight teachers we have had so far, I was only dissapointed with one, and she left. The new principal is wonderful and involved. Each year the parents have a chance

I am a working parent and yet every teacher has been gracious in working out a schedule that allows me to participate in the children's classes.

I love Consolidated School! The building and grounds are pleasant (there's a lot of new playground equipment this year), the staff are friendly and helpful, the teachers are dedicated and hard-working. Every day the children have specialized instruction in one of the following: music, art, physical
... Read more education and love of books. The PTO is very active, raises a lot of money for the school and parents are encouraged to participate in school activities. The only thing I would like to see improvement in is inclusion of modern languages in the curriculum. It is much easier for people to learn foreign languages when they are young (before they turn 12 years old!!) and it is SO important for the U.S. and its future leaders to have a global perspective.

Nice environment. Some children are left behind by a noticably unmotivated teaching staff.The principal is in a tower and parents are not permitted to guide teacher choices.The level of parental involvement is kept at the fringe of activities. The district should increase the diversity of the staff

This would secure a solid education staff remaining in the district.This would also encourage a family involved educational process. The statistics look good on the outside but the school leaves an empty feeling for students as well as parents. Read less
