Alternative Learning Systems

Some kinder teachers teach children to write using the denealian font. But all the other paperwork they get, work on, view, uses the normal basic font. Then when those students move on to 1st grade, those teachers mark points off, for not utilizing the correct font. It's hard on parents, because we taught our kids to write using the basic font that is in all the workbooks online and in books stores. Now our kids tell us, "that's not the right way!" Does anyone else see a problem with this??

I love this school because it has so many great teachers and they all teach great. Each student who goes there will have a great education and learn new thing every single day.

The teachers here have touched my heart and so have the students. Learning new things here have opened up a great new window for me to explore. I hope to come here next year

The teachers do not know how to talk to the kids in the school and are fast to suspend the kids without all the facts. By far the worst school for kids in the district

I have went too joy before for 1,2, and 3rd grade and in all those grades i have met many amazing people in my life and learned very mich from this school. This school was a one of a kind alone and i hope your child can have the experience of joy elementary.

My daughter transitioned to this school in her last 6th grade of elementary. They have made her feel very welcomed and comfortable @ this school. The office staff and principle are very friendly. She is having a great 6th grade year after feeling very badly about having to move schools.

As a student, it was the worst possible school. The teachers didn't teach. When I backed for help they said "Look in your book". The teachers did not have our best interests in mind. The lunches had no nutritional value. It was severely underfunded. Other students agreed with this statement.
