Roosevelt Elementary School

Both my children went through this school system my daughter a star student with all A’s got into their college program as a Junior in High school. She graduated from BCCC with her Associates and then graduated HS. With a full scholarship to finish her Bachelor’s. This has saved our family about $30-40k in college expensive. Most kids are very competitive with their grades. My son was totally opposite of my daughter. He was Special Education. Every year or more if needed the child study team along with his teachers sit down and we come up with an educational plan (IEP)for him. There have been time where the IEP need to be adjusted. Eventually with years of support he was able to go general ed in school and leave the special ed classroom. Even in General Ed I was able to work closely with teachers and principals. Bottom line is we had nothing but a great experience with the schools.

Very nice school and great academics. My daughter attended kindergarten last year (and loved every minute of it) and will start first grade this fall. We love the school and the town. Mrs L was amazing. Thank you.

I appreciate that my child is learning about the Lord at school. Attending a public school was a nightmare with the teachers' and principals' lack of support, so having a new beginning at ALA is a Godsend. However, I am concerned with whether teaching is up to par with competing schools and state standards. Not all the teachers are certified or have even attended college to teach so the strategies are lacking as well as understanding the methods of teaching, reteaching, and meeting students where they are. There needs to be a bigger push on academics and possibly having students rewarded by being inducted into the Junior Honor Society to motivate and encourage young learners.Another concern is the high teacher turnover rate and the administrative team's lack of supervision in supporting their teachers' needs. Lastly, it is a Christian school and the superintendent is wonderful. I hope he is closely assessing where ALA can step up and become a reputable Christian school known for its academic rigor and development of future leaders.

Memorial Campus School is well maintained facility with good educational program. My Son currently had Mrs. Staley as a his KGD teacher and I can share that she is great! She is strict ,which teach the kids to fallow the daily schedule, she is experienced to the detail. Academically ,she is practicing with them a lot and give them a lot of homework regarding to some parents, but my personal view is that she is actually doing them a favor and tech our children on responsibility and prepare them academically well for 1st grade. Over all I recommend Memorial Campus School as a safe, well maintained and academically prosper school.
