Posted by a community member on 8/8/2015I love Orr. The teachers and support staff really care about the children's "over all" education. My daughter has attend Orr for the last 5 yrs and she loves I exspecialy the after school and art programs. My youngest daughter now attends Orr pre-k. They made the transition easy for her.

Posted by a parent on 5/5/2014Orr ES is a welcoming place with concerned, helpful teachers, administrators and parents. All of them look out for each other and try to meet the needs of each individual student.
Posted by a community member on 4/18/2014Orr is a good school. The staff seems to be on one accord. The students seem happy. As a parent I am happy with my children's overall educational experience.
Posted by a parent on 10/28/2013Continued from the previous post: As for the homework, my 5 year old gets so much that I hardly have enough time to help him with all of it. Mrs. Obama recently visited the school because it is a model for the healthy eating program (not sure of what it's called.) Yes, I agree that the kids need to

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am a parent, I am so upset with my son first year of big boy school. My son is autistic and this year was the worse school year! He did not receive proper therapy that is stated in his IEP, wasn’t notified about this til the middle almost end of school year. I never spoke with the head person of special education, he never responding back to me. I also asked about a promotion for pre-K 3 they stated his last day is this Wednesday because pre-K 4 is having a promotion Thursday and it’s nowhere for him to go in the school! Like I was looking forward to atleast a ceremony like every other school did for my son but no it’s nothing. I’m hurt and upset and he will not be returning next year!Parent Review11mo ago - Randle Highlands Elementary School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am a parent of a PK3 student. My husband and I could not be more pleased with Payne Elementary. The teachers are warm, engaging and professional. We are so impressed with the curriculum - my son's class has specialized weekly instruction in science and Spanish. Even at the early childhood education level, the students have access to enrichment activities in the after school program - this fall, the activities were soccer and "Joy of Motion" (yoga and dance). We are excited for our younger son to start at this school in a few years if he is able to get a space through the lottery!Parent Review6y ago - Ketcham Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe staff & teachers of my child at St. Coletta are very dedicated to giving him a good school experience. This is his third year at the school and I intend on keeping him here until he ages out! Very nice facility and there are always parent training classes and other events to help the parents feel connected to their child's education. Pleased thus far and would recommend to others.Parent Review11y ago
