The Principal (Ms. Martin) and Assistant Principal (Mr. Wright) have been amazing with assisting the children and addressing parent concerns. They take the time to involve themselves with each kid in their care. They know student by name and can also speak directly with parents concerning the needs of their individual student without having to consult with the teacher or look in a file. They team with teachers to provide them with support as well. They also have different hands on programs to assist children who are struggling with different subjects or assessments. They make these children feel elite and special, as oppose to approaching them as failing and unresponsive children. They are very hands on and it shows in how the kids light up when they see them. The office staff are a bit challenging though, some days they are friendly, other days not so much. Communication is a bit abrasive but I don’t think it’s meant in a malicious manner. They also make it a point to know students by name and assist them as well. Their passion shows through from that perspective. Overall, Commons Lane is a great school for students to excel in learning with a touch of the nurturing care they are custom to receiving at such a young age.
