Terrible school. Bullying is very bad here and nothing gets done about it.
Posted by a parent on 1/18/2018Dirty. Disgusting. Bullying is a massive problem and never solved. Lunches are bad and the fruit never fresh (sometimes is starting to rot. My kid brought home a half rotted apple, once.). They can't keep up on repairs (causing kids to injure their self). They can't afford anything. They don't do an
Posted by a parent on 3/6/2017We moved to the area from out of town in October 2011. Coming from a district that didn't want to help our child at all with some of the problems she has been having, this school was like a 180. The teachers have been very helpful and kind towards her (unlike the other school she was in) and many kn
Posted by a parent on 1/20/2013My son is nearing the end of his 6th year at Ben Franklin Elementary. He just loves this school & looks foreward to the start of each new school year! Whenever, any sort of problem or concerns arises, the staff & administrators are quick to respond. There are also many family centered & PTA activiti

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSt. Amelia’s has really gone downhill in the past few years. Was hoping this year would be better, but the principal is on a medical leave, a gym teacher fired, and another Kindergarten teacher just left. The turn over in administration and teachers is astounding! The people they have running it are less than impressive. Oh and if your child has an IEP, they barely follow it!Parent Review5mo ago - St John The Baptist School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOur second year at CTK with 1st and Kindergarten students, and we are so happy with our decision! It is an investment for our children, but what we get in return is above and beyond our expectation. Academically, our children are excelling and having so much fun learning. The teachers and staff are like a family, they are warm and inviting and you can sense the love they have for teaching our children and their pride for CTK. The students from pre-K through 8th grade are all kind to one another, and you can tell how this is fostered by the amazing team. STREAM curriculum, the amazing music program, and inclusive sports/activities. We could not love our school more!Parent Review1y ago - North Park Community School #50
