Schuylerville elementary is excellent as long as you make the effort to be involved in your child's education. There are many opportunities at Schuylerville for parent input. Unfortunately I think too many people leave it up to the school to 'take care of it.' With the school getting larger, the

Regarding small class size in the previous review: Class size in third grade next year will hover around 25 and other grades will be similarly impacted.

Schuylerville elementary has been an excellent school for our son. The class sizes are quite manageable, 19 in his second grade class. He is very enthusiastic, and his enthusiasm is mirrored in the young, energetic, dedicated staff at the school. High achievers are challenged, and while we haven't
