My daughter has been attending this school since kindergarten and she is now in 3rd grade. Over the years, I have seen so many positive changes and improvements in the school. The principal truly cares about the students, staff, and overall environment of the school. You can tell there is more effor
Posted by a parent on 5/19/2026My child has been attending this school for five years. James Ryder Randall's new Principal Dr.Grant is amazing! This is Dr.Grants second year as Principal but her impact on this school has absolutely changed the morale of staff and students alike. I believe the teachers and administrators at this s
Posted by a parent on 12/8/2023The second grade words coming home have been Kindergarten words. There is no homework. The only thing to be done with these four letter words is to put them in alphabetical order. There are no sentences, no challenges. Now I understand that a lot of kids in this school struggle, but what about those

Posted by a parent on 4/10/2018My daughter has attended this school for 2 years and she has had a wonderful experience. We started in the ECC center and she is now in the mainstream side. The building itself is in need of repairs but I think that is probably something that can be said for most of the public schools in the county,

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school truly doesn't provide the best accomodations and support needed for children with special needs. Administration barely even knows the kids, the kids' names, or close to anything about special education. Severe staffing issues in special education due to lack of support from administration and the turnover rate is only increasing more. Funds for special education are definitely not used properly. This school needs a whole separate wing for the special education programs (Regional Autism, Regional M.O.V.E., and CRI) so the students have everything needed for their educational experience to be successful (to include a home suite to learn life skills such as cooking, cleaning, and doing laundry; laundry rooms with laundry machines to wash student clothing if accidents occur; Adaptive PE room with proper equipment; aquatics pool for students to have their aquatics program; classrooms that ALL have bathrooms in them, etc.).Parent Review2y ago - Clinton Grove Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageEvery single year or semester theres a teacher leaving or getting fired. My child has had 3 science teachers and 3 math teachers and 2 art teachers. One specific teacher just gossips the whole class and talks about other classes. If youre a good student and do something wrong youll only get a slap on the wrist even if you curse or threaten someone. So even if a kid thats considered as a good student curses at you, they will not be in trouble. Theyre have been many racial stuff said to my child and the culprit got a light punishment and still says stuff to my child. I doubt any of these students are excited to learn and most likely dread entering the school.Other Review1mo ago
