Harding Ave, Edmond, OK 73013

My 3 kids have been at Chisholm for 3 yrs now. And I'm an active parent in the school. Very active. I'm at the school at least 2x a week assisting teachers as well as active in the PTO. The principal is wonderful! I've even had 1 of my kids be sent to his office and he handled the situation perfectly! Between him and the assistant principal they know every child by name...and thays saying a lot since there's roughly 700 pupils. We've only had 1 teacher clash and that was simply because her personality and my daughters didn't match. It happens ;) They have a great overall school reward system (charger bucks) lots of great activities and parties planned throughout the year. I've noticed very little bullying and what 2 instances in 3 yrs that I've witnessed, it was handled well and was put to a stop. Out of the 30+ teachers and staff, I honestly can't pick out 1 that doesn't care about the kids. Even the cafeteria staff talk and interact with the children. We've moved a lot and this is our 5th elementary school... and our favorite. The student body is great and the parents are great at volunteering and supporting our teachers...which truly makes a great school. Yes, each room of 1st grade and up has 3 walls but the 4th wall is made out of shelves and what not. I really thought my kids would have a hard time adjusting. That was my only reservation about this school, but it's fine! The kids don't even notice! It doesn't impair their learning at all. The school is divided up into wings. So all K rooms are on 1 side of the school. Down 1 hallway is all of 1st grade etc. All 1st grade and up put on a program every year. Last day before Christmas break is the all school caroling! Really a fun, active school. The music teacher makes thing fun and the PE teacher has the kids play fun and engaging games. You won't be disappointed with Chisholm.
