My child attened a private school out of state and this 'excellent school' doesn't remotely compare. The teachers are just doing a job. The teachers are not following thru with correspondance that I, the parent, initiate. But Ms. Edingberg is awesome. That's the only class and teacher my child likes.

Great school. If you don't like to have to put work into your child's education, find another school. Lots of homework to reinforce what is being learned in class.

... Read more is that A.W. Brown teachers care about their students and have a wonderful dicipline policy in place so the larger class sizes are manageable. This is a top notch school for parents who want to be involved in their child's education. If you are a parent who feels the education and well-being of your child is 100% the responsibility of the teacher, don't even waste your time. My only regret is that once he goes to jr. high he will have to leave. This is a wonderful school with a vision to see our children become amazing people. Read less
