Rockaway Valley Elementary School

My 3 kids went to BHS and all achieved high SAT scores. Two of them graduated from college, one with an engineering degree and one with a biology degree and BSN. The third one was accepted into numerous honors programs. This school has a great diverse student population, plenty of sports and extra curricular activities, and strives to continually improve the success of its students.

The John Hill School is an amazing school. My child is thriving in this environment. The administration is actively involved walking around the building all day long. The principal even plays with the children at recess. All the staff and teachers are excellent and truly care about the well being of the children in this school. We have been very impressed with the academics, the afterschool club opportunities and there is a wonderful community. The PTA is amazing and brings in so many wonderful assemblies for the children.

Without the Lake Drive School, my daughter, who is hard of hearing and has several additional special needs, would not be where she is today - about to graduate Mountain Lakes High School and headed to college in the fall. I still remember my first meeting at Lake Drive with her. It was a large conference table of more than 15 or 20 people, all there to figure out how best to take care of my child. I was so amazed and so touched and felt confident that she was going to get the best education possible from professionals who truly cared. My son went to Lake Drive as part of the integrated pre-school and learned so much about empathy, friendship, responsibility, and compassion. He left Lake Drive at five as a smart, kind, confident, and considerate child with the people skills to succeed in life.
