I use to be a student in Clementon Elementary school and I can whole heartedly say if you have the choice of another school, CHOOSE IT. The principal is disliked by his staff & students, the school is constantly filled with a horrendous sewage smell, the students are not safely kept from the littles in the hall (which is dangerous for both as a tripping hazard) and more. The teachers though are excellent! I cannot say enough about how amazing the teachers are in the midst of the chaos, while as you get into the older grades the teachers will NOT care for you or your child as much if they are 1. shy 2. struggling with grades (they are honestly ignored because you will NOT be held back) and 3. being bullied. If your student is struggling it’s not a problem at all because they won’t be held back or provided any extra support.

excellent school no complains very well managed by staff and admin and school board

My grandson is doing exceptionally well at Erial. In fact, he is reading above grade level and is in the gifted program. As a former principal, I feel strongly that Erial has great teachers and very competent administrators in a safe, student centered environment. I also appreciate the staff at the latchkey program. It takes a dedicated staff, caring parents and a committed community to foster success in our schools.
