Excelent teachers! It is the first time in NJ, the school is the best for me.
Posted by a parent on 9/7/2016Its amazing how things change over the years. My daughter graduated from this school in 2008. I thought it was a fairly decent school then. But know my son attends this school and what a difference. A parent stated in a below review that the Principal is always busy and never available for parents.
Posted by a parent on 11/6/2014This school is all over the place. We have been through 3 principals in 3 years. No structure, all they want is money.The computers are not working and the phones either.They don't have updated text books for kids and the teachers have to print out worksheets from online textbooks. You can never spe
Posted by a parent on 10/27/2014I just moved to Belleville and so far from what I have observed I think it was a mistake to enroll my kids in the Belleville school system. I have two kids one goes to school number 8 and the other one to the middle school. My daughter is in 4th grade I feel she brings home first grade level

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI was a former teacher at Elliott Street for 4 years before moving to Florida. Elliott Street has high standards and expectations to ensure students are getting the education they deserve. I won’t lie, it is hard work but very rewarding. I had the pleasure to have worked with both Ms. Johnson and Ms. Desantis. Both principals were very professional and approachable. The coaches were always willing to work with me and answer any questions I had. The school building is so modern and full of technology. If you love teaching and are willing to put in the hard work, I definitely recommend working here. If you are a parent looking for a school to enroll your child in, this is a very great school. The rating provided does not take into account the academics of the primary grades, the fact that Elliott has many bilingual students who struggle with English, and students with specials needs. Do not let a rating be the determining factor! Visit the school, meet the staff members, and form your own opinion.Parent Review4y ago - Ridge Street Elementary School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSuch an excellent school. From the school culture to the staff efforts and student achievement I am so happy my daughter is graduating from here this year. Homework does not equivalate to achievement. My daughter does not bring home homework in the 8th grade. But she does independent-level practice via the Lexia app to improve reading and Aleks for math help. My daughter is a straight-A student and I owe it to Ridge Street! Thanks for everything <3Parent Review3y ago - Belleville PS5

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI love this school! They teach you well and also give fun to the students. The teachers are nice, but strict at the same time. The teachers are very engaged in what they are doing. They care about the students and give them a safe and clean environment. The hallways are clean, the bathrooms are pretty clean, and the food is good. I would rate this school a 8/10 which is pretty good. I would definitely recommend going there if you want your children to have an amazing time. The grades are pre k all the way to sixth grade. Right now I'm going into sixth grade and cant wait to have another fun school year!Other Review1y ago - Roosevelt Elementary School
