Really good. Students are nice. Teachers are nice. Says my 8-year-old going into grade 3. My 10-year-old said it’s amazing and try to get into Mr Longo’s 5th grade class if you can.
Posted by a parent on 8/5/2024We are new to the district and school and are extremely impressed with the staff and how much our son is learning. The school is doing a wonderful job handling the pandemic as well.
Posted by a parent on 10/17/2020There is much more to be desired in an elementary school. There are some really great teachers however the leadership/Youth and Family Service Dept ruins the experience for me.
Posted by a parent on 9/10/2020The teachers , just like most schools currently... need better support and ratio of kids to teacher.... It seems in keeping with common core standards they ignore the actual fact that the students have to absorb and learn the material for the teacher to be effective.... instead they will roll over a

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AveragePreschool program at Slocum is outstanding. I believe it is run by NYS SCOPE but I must say the teachers and assistants there are giving my grandchild the best preschool experience I could ever expect. As a retired teacher I know quality when I see it. My grandson loves going to school and is so excited about learning. This is due to the nurturing care and educational experiences Mrs M & Mrs P put into their classes. They have set the foundation for a positive learning experience that will continue throughout their future school years. Teacher quality does make a difference. I hope my grandson will continue to have such a wonderful experience as he continues his education at Slocum.Parent Review4y ago - Cleary School For The Deaf

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI used to be a student at this school before it closed. I LOVED this school. All the bad reviews are from bad experiences, I had a great experience and I wish I could make it to 8th grade. I was in 7th grade when the school closed and I was deeply upset with the news about the closing school. Though not all teachers were the best, some were awesome. Mr. Clareen was awesome. I miss this school sooo much and I wish I could do something to reopen it.Other Review6y ago
