I love the AR program and my son is already at a 3.7 and has just finished 1st grade! For anyone who doesn't know about AR, it is a reading program that puts each child at his or her own pace to learn to read. The first number is your grade level and the .number is the month in that grade so James is

My son, in his second year at Stewartsboro, transfered from a great private school: Lancaster Academy in Smyrna. I was very apprehensive about him attending a public school; but to my surprize he has really blossomed academically. His reading has massively improved and he enjoys his teachers tremendously.

My child attended Stewartsboro Elementary last year for the first time. I really must say they have a wonderful AR program. My child could already read, but the program enhanced her love for reading. The Library Staff on AR night were very warm and friendly and made my child feel welcome each night
... Read more we were there. Mrs. Bingham rocks as the Assistance principal. She was very active throughout the school year. I saw her at most of the school functions. The only time I saw the Principal (Mr. Seymore) was in the lobby. I never saw him at any of the awards or on family nights. I m sure he s a busy man, but as a parent, it would have been nice to see him on those special days. The security measures that they have implemented are great and I really appreciate that. My child s teacher was nice and she kept the parents informed as to what was going on each week. There were no accelerated learning opportunities for my child and that was a huge draw back for us, however I was already prepared to supplement her education at home Read less

As a PTO officer at Stewartsboro, I can say that we don't have enough parents involved with the school. Too many of the parents say they will help but when we ask for help they don't volunteer. We have stopped having PTO meetings because only 3 parents would show up that were not PTO officers.PTO if
