Yellow Springs Elementary School

Horrifying. Kids with severe learning disabilities not separated from other students, thus constantly disrupting the class and not affording those students the teaching they need. A counselor in a classroom, students distracting with profanity outbursts and running out of classrooms yelling "I want to go home" This is just the first three months of school. Also, my child has had homework twice this year. Twice. I verified and there is no homework, and when it is given ( 2 times) it is ridiculous how low a bar this school sets for its children. It is impossible to learn with children with disabilities constantly distracting the class. Bringing a counselor in the classroom only creates more distraction. I took my child here because we HAD to. But i am looking in to moving just to get another school, this has been an absolutely heart breaking experience. DO NOT SEND YOUR KID TO THIS SCHOOL if you value their education.

We’ve been incredibly impressed with this school since moving to the neighborhood. The staff is attentive, communicative, and truly invested in each child's growth. The principal sets a strong tone for academic excellence while still creating a warm, welcoming environment. The teachers go above and beyond, and the small class sizes mean students get real attention.What stands out most is the sense of community — it’s the kind of school where parents know each other, teachers know the kids by name (even outside their grade), and the PTA is very active. There’s also a strong emphasis on reading, STEM, and character-building — not to mention the school grounds are always clean and well-maintained.We've seen noticeable improvement in the school's overall performance year after year. It’s definitely one of the top reasons young families are moving into the area.

Don’t recommend, it was okay experience could have been better
