Read what parents are saying about Georgetown Elementary SchoolThis is a great school. The leadership is especially strong, from the superintendent to the principal. They use evidence based curriculum and have really been responsive to criticism thus far. I have learners that vary from special education to gifted and the school has been a great fit for both. They follow a "super switch" model, where gifted learners receive instruction at their level while peers who are struggling get intensive help at their level. My gifted learner has also really enjoyed the new STEAM and Bricks4kids offerings that are available all the way to 1st grade. As far as the "social climbing" complaints, I can understand where that is coming from. In my experience this is a quality of the community, rather than the school itself. My family has been more than welcome and treated equally at the school, but I can see how issues arise in the neighborhoods. The school in every interaction has not shown that they are interested in partaking in any of that.

Posted by a parent on 3/12/2015Lots of social-climbing at this school. If you or your child are not deemed one of the "cool" families, you and you child will not fit in here. The social politics are unbelievable, among parents, students, and staff. Teachers favor students that are part of the "cool" dynamic. There is no support for talented, above-average students- you'll be given plenty of lip service, but no action. I've experience chaotic classrooms while volunteering on a weekly basis- kids seem to pop up out of their seats and talk out of turn, interrupt the teacher or students at will, and this goes noticed by the teacher. Seems to be acceptable classroom behavior. Bullying is very much present- boys and girls. Principle is on your side as long as you're on hers. If you have a different perspective or viewpoint, you'll be labeled "difficult parent". Rest of staff will treat you as such accordingly. Don't expect a personal report card either- they are generic and basically uninformative. There is no emphasis on spelling and handwriting (cursive) is a quick crash course, then no expectations for actually using it in their work thereafter. Looks nice on the outside, but quality lacking on the inside.
Posted by a parent on 8/25/2014Georgetown Elementary is a fabulous place for any child. The teachers are loving and nurturing. The principal is one in a million. Parent involvement is welcomed and appreciated. I truly can't say enough about this exceptional school.
