North Shore

The school seems to teach for the statewide test that are given. My daughter had lessons on the same topics for months at a time. The Leadership is there to say no more than to help the kids grow. There is not a real sense of community. Through online learning during the pandemic it as obvious teachers were not teaching. Her teacher meet with the students for a short time and then assigned them graded homework that it was up to the parents to teach and help the student with. Bottom line before the pandemic and after the pandemic, the school seems more interested in their ranking than actually teaching the students for the long term and providing a strong foundation for them to succeed in a highly ranked university.

One of the best elementary schools in the county and I’m incredibly surprised it’s only showing up as a 7/10—that’s a head-scratcher(should at least be a 9/10!)…Incredible, hard-working staff and lovely principal! The community involvement is top-notch, too! Parents are invested here and it shows! Teachers can ACTUALLY teach here—not just manage behaviors all day, which means ACTUAL learning can take place. Maybe the only downside here is due to local demographics, cultural diversity isn’t strong. Regarding previous poster…be wary of any parent posting about their singular experience with their “spirited” child….

I truly don’t understand how this school has a 5/10 rating. It is an amazing school with dedicated teachers who create an outstanding learning environment. Educators like Mrs. Steinmetz, along with many others, go above and beyond to support and inspire their students. This rating does not reflect the quality of education or care provided here, and I believe it deserves to be revisited.

The focus is one on one. The teachers focus more on individual students versus overcrowded classrooms. The faith based programs teach morals, faith in God, and respect of themselves and others.
