Jardine Elementary

Dr. Gardner has transformed the culture of Ross Elementary. I am confident in my children's safety and learning at school. Communication from the school leaders and teachers is much better. Ross Proud!

Lowman Hill is a wonderful school, that is filled with diversity and many opportunities for learning. Topeka Public Schools is providing training for teachers to learn about engaging students in meaningful discussions while they are learning. The Lowman Hill teachers will be implementing this as they return back to school this fall. Everyone loves that Lowman Hill is small enough that many teachers know all of the student's names.

My daughter enjoys coming to school her. Every teacher that she has had have been welcoming and helpful to her along the way. The school provides opportunities for her to grow as a good student of character that follows the pillars of character. She loves having a house/family that she belongs to at school through their character program.

Our family has been at Randolph for 38 years. All four of my children and now all five of my grandchildren have attended there. My husband also attended Randolph from1968-1975. We LOVE this school!!! The neighborhood around it has remained an in demand location for people to move to because of Randolph. It has maintained an active parent support group for many, many years. They work very hard to help keep Randolph great. One of the most impressive things I remember them doing is when schools didn’t have a computer lab for the students to work and learn computer skills, our parent organization raised the money to put the first computer lab in our school well before any other school in our district had one. We’ve purchased playground equipment, classroom supplies and teacher needs. We’ve funded educational field trips and basically any need we see. Our teachers are top notch and always have been. Many of them over the years have spent their entire teaching career there. I have been impressed with every teacher my children and grandchildren have had. They have been blessed with some of the best teachers ever!!! We are the oldest active elementary school in Topeka and our alumni come in droves to share their memories when we have had anniversary celebrations in the past. Our most recent one was our 90th and we are approaching 100!!! Alumni drop in constantly to have a look at the place they got their educational start and they love to share their memories with our current students. The Randolph community has always felt like its own small town as the neighbors come to the school for many events throughout the year even once their children have graduated out of elementary school. It is a special place for sure and I highly recommend it to anyone and everyone.

Superhero staff that take great care of their students. I feel like Everyone is family , I would recommend this school over and over again, thank you whitson.

The school is very welcoming of new families. Given the small classes, parents get to know each other quickly. Academically, the school helps the students advance at a quick pace. If a child is having trouble, the teachers are more than accommodating in helping students be successful. Our transition has been very enjoyable, having students and parents focused on academics will only benefit kids throughout their educational endeavors, along with their careers.
