Read what parents are saying about Tech. Ed. & Career CenterMy son is receiving an excellent education at Arlington Tech in the Career Center. He struggled in middle school but is thriving here with the hands-on instruction and project-based learning.
Posted by a parent on 2/20/2020I was a student at the Career Center 15 years ago. I had a unique hands on experience in the Animal Science classes. I truly enjoyed every part of it and I look back fondly on that time. I have some wonderful stories to tell my own children about my experiences with the wide variety of animals.

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe moved to this neighborhood specifically to attend Charles Barrett and we couldn't be happier about it. CBES is such a special school. The teachers go out of their way to communicate with parents and the kids feel supported and cared for. The integration of the arts makes learning fun and exciting. Also, having an after school program in the adjacent Rec Center is a lifesaver.Parent Review11mo ago - Randolph Elementary School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe name of this school is now Alice west fleet. It moved here five? or so years ago in to a brand new building and changed its previous name Patrick Henry to Alice West Fleet. I think it is because the name is not changed here that there are no reviews after 2017. My son has been going to this school for just over a year. I find the teachers are good, they are dedicated, experienced, supportive and engaged with parents, at least in our experience. The administrators are also welcoming and responsive to parent inquiries and concerns. However I found they are not strong in addressing kids bullying. Even though, they responded to concerns from a few parents, they didn’t take strong action so the problem was not fully resolved. I am afraid if such problem persist the school is not well equipped to address it decisively. The advanced academics (gifted) program also seems less challenging and engaging to students enrolled in the gifted program. Over all though, the school environment is welcoming and the education is good with a well diverse student community. In fact I feel the 5/10 rating it is given here I doesn’t do it justice.Parent Review3mo ago - Long Branch Elementary School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOur child has attended for the last two years and we are throughly impressed with the school. The teachers are dedicated and every interaction with the staff is positive. The class composition is very diverse, which we like. That said, I think this impacts some of the ratings as the teachers have to deal with students from very well-off families with strong preparation for school as well as recent immigrants who are learning English in school. It’s not surprising that test scores from this cohorts don’t converge instantly.We can’t wait for our second child to start there this fall!Parent Review8mo ago - Oakridge Elementary School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy family and I had the most awful experience at Oak Ridge Elementary. Though we left a little over a year ago: I experienced constant conflicts with the staff, there were multiple teacher changes during the year, most of whom English was not their primary language. And, now that I’m attending a good public school in another district, my child was almost required to be held back a grade due to a serious lack of skills and inability to perform at appropriate grade level.There is nothing positive that I have to say about the school, I would recommend that if you’re in this district that you seek private education because your student will be left behind if they are forced to go to this school.Parent Review2mo ago
