Very disappointing experience. While many of the teachers genuinely care about the students, my interactions with the school’s leadership were frustrating. Communication was poor, parent volunteers were not treated with the respect they deserved, and I often felt dismissed when raising legitimate co
Posted by a parent on 7/13/2026My daughter started in Robert Gordon Elemantary as a 2nd Grader and her 2nd Grade was a success. I love how parents and teachers are very engaged. My daughter's teacher was Mrs. Siegel and he was great. Principal Mrs. Genao is leaving and a new principal will start the 2023/2024 school year.
Posted by a parent on 8/15/2023Robert Gordon is an excellent elementary school with great teachers and a great Principal Ms. Genao. My kids love the school, the events that are planned and the great families that have children at RG.
Posted by a parent on 2/21/2023My daughter has attended Robert Gordon since Kindergarten. She is about to enter 5th grade and thanks to her amazing teacher has always loved going to school.

All the Staff are very dedicated to the children and parents get a great opportunity to get involved in school activities throughout the year.

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe looks of this school are very much deceiving. The Principal and some teachers are not as patient and understanding with special needs students. They are quick to send them home rather than addressing the child's needs properly. There is much lack of professionalism and support while working with special needs students. As a parent this school was the biggest headache endured while my child attended until finally being removed. Working with children overall should be about patience and compassion or you are clearly in the wrong field.Parent Review1y ago - St Joseph The Carpenter School
