Van Rensselaer Elementary School

Our son had a wonderful kindergarten teacher and she was great at keeping the lines of communication open! I personally did not care for the administration. The school corporation as a whole plays favorites and focus on consequences rather than prevention. The class size is too big in my opinion; 22 in our son's kindergarten class. Some of the staff is rude and unprofessional. The students are required to put their heads down and not talk after they finish their lunch. Parent involvement could be better. The primary school is brand new and therefore is very clean and there seems to be appropriate space. If parents are involved and care about their children's education then the staff make more effort to remain in contact with parents.
