Tilton Elementary School

My experience at this school on a scale of 1-10 would be an 8. They create greatness within those walls.

I've been a substitute teacher at CPS for 2 years. I have observed every demographic and grade level. I felt compelled to write a review after substitute teaching a kindergarten class at Heffern. I cannot compliment the gym teacher enough! Mrs. Rathers-Clark was the kind of teacher that every teacher should observe and reflect. She did a lesson with spaceships that involved teamwork and a hula hoop that called for personal space. She had students stretch and line up, then dance as a class for a warm-up before her lesson started. She was always in control of her classroom management, every student was engaged and it was a pleasure watching such great teaching.

Putting our children education & safety first. Faculty & staff all work together to achieve these task which are trying at times but they find a way to GET THE JOB DONE!

Here's to a great administration that places student first, and I love the teachers that have given their all. I have to admit that some kids are not focused but let's get the record correct - parents need to more involved

Terrible school. Just withdrew my 1st grader. It’s 10/20 and she still don’t have all of her text books or a gym uniform. They fired the teacher for speaking up about the questionable practices and policies the school has and didn’t inform parents until almost 72 hours later even though they knew they were firing her when they spoke to parents an hour before they did it. When I went to the school to speak to admin about who would be teaching my child and why they were moving in secrecy, I was told they didn’t know and could not enter the school and speak with the dean to find out. I then demanded that they go get my daughter out of the school since I did not know who she was in there with and was told no and had the door shut in my face. This is the most disrespectful and deceitful educational institution I have ever experienced. Do not send your children here if you care about their education and mental health. The school admin doesn’t care about either!

This is an awesome school! The staff is great, attentive and loving. The children are always excitingly learning when I am there and they care for their parents as well. They teach Spanish and respect for others.
