GreatSchools Rating

My son is very happy at Doran and he was also in that class where there was sub after sub and then his teacher went on maternity leave. It was frustrating but I also can recognize that the school was trying to find a replacement but they had to work with what they had. Sometimes things just happen that way and although I wasn't happy one bit about it and made that known to Mrs. Pontes they were trying their best to find someone. I hope this school continues to get better like they have recently by moving out of a level 4 to a level 2. If only there was space to build a field right next to the school!

"I grew up in the neighborhood. Large park with summer programs, ample sidewalks for walking, and lovely views of the river. Quiet with easy access to the best bakeries in the city and local produce and fish markets. Not far from larger grocery stores either. Excellent neighbors that have also been in the area for years. "
