Read what parents are saying about Kae Avenue Elementary SchoolThe techers, staff, and principal go above and beyond the call of duty each day. The effort that it put forth to inspire and motivate learning for each student is amazing. I am so impressed with the effort and activities that are planned for students and family. I have never had any issue receiving a courteous and timely response from anyone on the staff.
Posted by a parent on 12/13/2010It's not surprising that reviews of this school are inconsistent- that is a perfect match for how the school is operated. Sadly, many great teachers have fled this school to get away from the craziness. Those who are left are not permitted to say a negative word about anything, for fear of retribution. New teachers are more concerned about texting and chit-chat on their cell phones, than building the students self esteem and motivation. I agree- it's like a prison, for both students and staff.
Posted by a community member on 7/26/2010Kae Avenue is not a great school. A few of the teachers are very nice and dedicated to student achievement but, the majority could care less about those kids. As a parent, I feel that they spent more time teaching students how to take a test instead of skills that will actually be useful in life. School should be productive and challenging for students not uninviting and dull. Teachers should be motivated and inspiring. Not at Kae Avenue!
Posted by a parent on 7/8/2010Kae Avenue is a very good school. The teachers work very hard to nurture and develop all of their students and constantly encourage them to be the best learners they can be. The principal encourages the teachers to stimulate and challenge all of the students so they can develop into responsible life-long learners. There are a lot of activities and opportunities for students to obtain additional support if deemed necessary. Parent involvment in welcome and encouraged. I have never seen so many teachers that are this dedicated to the advancement of their students. The faculty and staff at Kae Avenue go above and beyond their job requirements to assist students and their parents when there is an issue. I admire my co-workers for their dedication to the students at Kae Avenue and the community of Whitehall.
Posted by a teacher on 6/4/2010I enjoy working at Kae Avenue Elementary. I believe that the teachers and office staff work really hard and in the best interest of students/families. I acknowledge that the staff is not perfect, however, I know that we go above and beyond everyday to ensure student success and learning. As far as comments regarding the principal, I find it interesting that people have a problem with her never being in her office. Often that is because she is out in the building positively interacting with students and staff. She is very involved and cares a great deal for students and staff in this community. Any time I have ever approached her, she has been willing to listen and take my feelings under consideration. I have also witnessed her do the same thing with students, parents and other staff as well. I applaud her daily efforts in spite of the critics.

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy kids attend Shady Lane. They have already been in three school districts: Reynoldsburg, Licking Heights, and now Columbus Public. I must admit, we find ourselves no more satisfied or dissatisfied with the level of education here than we did in the higher-performing suburban districts. In fact, I would say I receive more frequent communication from teachers and staff at this school than the previous ones. Better yet, this is the first school my kids have gone to where they haven't complained about getting bullied. Their academic performance through upper grades still remains to be proven, but so far I feel as though they have adequate resources and support to learn.No school can raise your child, they can only teach. As a former educator, I know all too well that just being in a good district will not guarantee you're assigned to a good teacher. Furthermore, not all teachers will get along with all students. We actively chose to switch to Columbus Public Schools so that we would have the flexibility of moving schools if necessary, or finding good tutors, or spending more time helping our kids with homework. The framework for success exists here, and there are far more options than there are in the smaller districts. It's worth seeing for yourself!Parent Review2y ago - Woodcrest Elementary School

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageBad school, it is very difficult to earn teacher's trust and they get mad for the smallest reasons. Only two out of all the teachers are actually decent people, the rest of them are mean or annoying. Their budget is really low and charge slot for the simplest things.Student Review2y ago
