Covert Avenue School

My kids have been attending the school and we've had a great experience. The principal know most of the kids and parents in a school of 800+ kids. The kids get great support from school at all stages. Parent involvement at school is low. Few volunteers ever show up. So all the teaching observed from the kids is primarily teacher driven.

Gotham Avenue is a great school. The learning environment is safe and comfortable. The teachers and staff care and are helpful to the students and parents. I hope the school continues to excel.

Amazing school definitely recommend it to anyone.

The school seems to be improving with the new principal and assistant principal, and everything they are doing feels like it’s moving in the right direction. At the same time, I’ve noticed that the specials, like music, don’t seem to capture the students’ interest as much as they could, and it might help if the teacher took a more welcoming and friendly approach. The grading in music also doesn’t feel very fair, as many students seem to be receiving ‘N’s without parents being contacted or given feedback. I’ve also heard from several parents who share similar concerns about this class. On a positive note, the art teacher is wonderful and the gym teachers are doing a great job.
