Teravista Elementary School

I’ve been disappointed with the recent changes at DFT. The new principal, Lily, appears oblivious to the established culture of the school and the input of veteran teachers. Decisions feel arbitrary, and there is a sense that parent voices are being ignored. The school’s direction feels headed the wrong way, and the lack of receptiveness from the front office makes it difficult to feel confident in the current leadership. Hopefully a change will be made soon for the sake of the students. I'm still giving the school good rating because there really are some great teachers there. It's the admin that could use a lot of improvement

My 3 children attend Caldwell. My oldest is currently in 5th grade and has been at CHE since Kindergarten. My youngest attending is in Pre-K. This year has definitely been different but has not changed my children's learning. The teachers do their best and it shows through my kids. They love to attend school and are looking forward to attending again next year. The teachers communicate well through email. The office staff if very helpful when needed.

Terrible school! They have no resources for your child if they struggle. The bullying is out of control! The teachers are very lazy!

Classroom management exceeds expectations. Kids are engaged, excited, and challenged. Teachers support learners of all levels and work hard to make lessons engaging and inclusive of other subjects.

I don't want my child to be at a school where the current principal is an administrator.

The principal and leadership have really turned this school around. Great structured environment, focused on growing learning, and happy, positive atmosphere.

We love this school so much! Both of our kids have flourished under the care of incredible Montessori guides. Their language abilities, problem-solving skills, and social-emotional skills are incredible. Best of all, they are learning independence and to self-govern themselves, which is hard to get anywhere besides a true AMI-certified Montessori school. Highly recommend.
