8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy child is in her 7th (and final) year at Ellwood and absolutely I have never experienced a school and staff like it. Each teacher and supplemental instructor is engaged in new techniques, learning curves, safety, accountability, encouragement, and communication. Any issue I needed to bring to teachers or staff or even the principal was met with swift, appropriate, and fair action along with speedy communication. The school has provided a space where my child feels safe as well as supported and encouraged to be strong and learn at her pace and needs. IMO the education ratings are wrong due to the factors surrounding the financial and socioeconomic in the areaParent Review3y ago - Learning Tree Preschool
