"There is access to public transportation, gas stations and small shops within walking distance. Downtown is a short bus ride away and the Akron airport is much nicer and smaller than Cleveland. "

"There are a lot of people from Nepal living here in the North Hill area. And it seems like a lot of home-based service companies."

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI have problem with the staff who direct traffic including the Principal. There is a do not enter sign and they allow vehicles to enter. Then they tell the vehicle to go the wrong way without asking the vehicle at the stop sign to continue to stop.Also another incident was a man directing traffic mumbling and moving his hands towards my kids and letting the bigger vehicles to go ahead instead of letting my kids get into my vehicle first and then letting the bigger vehicles go. The bigger vehicles were stopping, but the traffic man was moving his hands for the vehicle to keep moving. I let him know that Pedestrians come first.Then one of my kids were signing loudly at music class and was forfeited his recess time. (Personally I would not take away recess because kids have to let all their energy out). A fruitful punishment would have been to not let him shop at the school. I understand that it can be disturbing if one sings louder than the other, however there are fruitful punishments. Personally, I take away favorite toys, make them read for 20 mins. learn time tables, recite poetry etc. sitting and wasting time is not the way and it produces NOTHING.Other Review8y ago7 Reviews - Harris/Jackson Community Learning Center

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe are happy with Harris School. The teachers are really good with the kids, and communicate well with the parents. The PTA organizes a lot of fun programs. We like the size of the school (only a few classes in each grade). The lunches are free and all-day kindergarten is free.Parent Review14y ago3 Reviews - St. Anthony of Padua Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSaint Anthony meets the needs of so many different learners. The atmosphere has a "welcome" feeling and the kids love coming to school. The school is bright and cheerful. Many great activities are available to enhance the learning of all students. Teachers and administration are very helpful and dedicated to doing what is best for kids.Parent Review4y ago6 Reviews
