Aldeane Comito Ries Elementary School

My child has never had issues prior to transferring to this school. My child was on A/B honor roll before attending Tony Alamo. Sadly, my child’s grades have declined. The school has a lot of bullying issues and doesn’t have a proper way to resolve them. Their method is to give “lunch detention for a few days” including the child who gets bullied. “To be fair”. What is that teaching our children? To me that is absolutely absurd! If my child feels the need to defend themselves, why should they be punished? My child received death threats from other students and has attempted to push off other students, and yet gets punishment. My child doesn’t feel they are able to speak up, and feels discriminated. “Mommy, why am I the only one getting in trouble?”. A child should not feel this way at a place of learning and what is deemed as “safe”. I am not the only parent who feels this way as I have asked others about their impression of Tony Alamo. My child did not dislike attending school until we ended up with this one UNFORTUNATELY. I do not recommend this school AT ALL.

THEY SENT ME TO A MENTAL INSTITUTION FOR BEING SLIGHTLY SAD ABOUT BEING BULLIED, THEY WITHHELD DOCUMENTS FROM OTHER SCHOOLS WHEN I TRANSFERRED, THEY LET ME ACT UP IN CLASS CONSTANTLY, AND PUT ME IN SPECIAL ED BC I WAS BEHIND BECAUSE THEY NEVER BOTHERED TRYING. DO NOT SEND YOUR KIDS HERE IF YOU LOVE THEM.

The teachers isn’t so great & they don’t communicate when stuff happens to you’re child .

I graduated this school in 2023 and honestly the school has changed but the teachers are engaging and helpful but the safety at the school can be concerning, there are a lot of crazy drivers and bad kids (once a kid threaten someone else). From my experience at the school it was good, but this school goes through a lot of teachers and my 4th grade teacher is now the P.E teacher. Though, the school is very engaging with the students they hold different events for each grades. For example at the end of the year the 5th graders walk throughout the entire , every hallway so that means every grade level. I think it's for the students so they can reflect on where they used to be and who they are now. The kids who go there are can be mean and they do say bad (don't think you kid is good kid at school if their good at home) some parents do need to keep them in check, manng that the teachers will get mad at them. Then again some teachers can be mean and can target specific kids which is just and fair, it didn't happen to me during my year but it can happen. Overall, put your kid into a school where you want them to grow and have fun so I would recommend this school but go with what you feel like is best for your child.

This school is literally the best out of the elementary schools that my children have ever attended. From the moment I spoke to Ms Genovese, until now, Every single encounter has been nothing short of all things amazing! My daughter has some special needs and on top of their already winning attitudes and care for the GE students, they are 100 % participating in their special education program with care, concern and a true desire to see theses babies blasting forward ! The communication from Jan Jones’ team to parents, is communication to be envied. They make me feel safe leaving my child in their hands. They make me feel like she is seen, heard, understood and rallied for at this school! They make you feel like family and I will forever be grateful that my daughter gets to experience Elementary School here! What a privilege ! Side Note: school is squeaky clean Cross Guard team ( impeccable ) which is a huge deal I could go on but I hope this helps! If you bring your child here, just know, you got the golden ticket !
