Ellsworth Elementary School

I am so impressed with Harmon. We moved from Utah and was worried because it seemed like a small town school. However. We've been blown away by the level of dedication and love the teachers have for the students and their success. Education is valued but made fun and accessible so kids want to learn. They tailor the education to where the student is. Kids who are struggling get extra help, without pulling down the kids who are succeeding. Kids who go faster then the class in reading or math, go ahead and the teacher let's them go at a faster pace. Every kids journey is different and this school understands that. For example, phonics is taught through stories and rhymes so it's easier to remember. 5th grade has battle of the books to encourage comprehension. They have dedicated reading levels through the school based on learning level rather than grade. Each student gets dedicated and individual educational support. It is well rounded and kids thrive here! I am so impressed and highly recommend sending your kid here! Truly Harmon is education done right!

I’m sharing this review as a concerned parent. While there are many dedicated staff members at this school, I’ve been disappointed with how student safety concerns have been handled. In situations where stronger support and proactive communication were needed, the response felt limited and placed unnecessary stress on families instead of resolving the issue effectively.Parents trust schools to create environments where students feel safe, included, and protected. I encourage the school to strengthen its safety procedures, improve follow-through when concerns are reported, and ensure that affected students receive appropriate support rather than feeling isolated during the process.I hope this feedback helps encourage improvements so all students can feel secure and supported at school.

We have 2 kids in 1st and 3rd grade and love the school. It’s located in the Meridian Community and everyone is very nice. Teachers are great, homework is reasonable. School puts on nice holiday events that the kids love going to.
