Glenkirk Elementary School

I can only describe this school and all of its teachers and staff with the very best words. Throughout my child’s years of education here, I never once needed to review any lessons with them, because every day they came home having fully learned everything at school. The teachers and staff are always engaged with families and respond to our questions and needs in the shortest possible time.For me, one of the most beautiful signs of this school’s quality is that my younger child cried for days at the beginning of every summer break because they missed their teachers so much. I truly believe this shows that all of the teachers are not only highly professional and skilled but also incredibly kind and caring.

We have had nothing but great experiences here. Principal Jeck is fantastic, Mr. C is the best Autism teacher you could ask for. The Preschool program is fantastic, Ms. Teri is a blessing. My son made so many great strides here. The communication among staff, administrators and teachers is A+Mrs. Cook is amazing, Mrs. Grezlak for second grade is one of the kindest, most caring people I have had the pleasure to meet. I could go on and on about this school, not a single bad experience. There is always an event at the school for families, we will truly miss BRES.

Unfortunately sometimes reviews are given based on what people think they know about a place rather than knowing the facts. The facts are that Buckland Mills still does give students PAWS awards and stickers. Administration calls parents to celebrate these PAW awards. They have even added to the award with tokens for the book vending machine when students get 2 golden PAWS. In addition, students who get PAWS get an item from the treasure chest. There are three administrators who divide up attendance for after school events and even attend weekend events such as concerts, robotics, and other county level tournaments. You just need to go onto the school website and scroll down to see the many awards and recognitions this school has received in the last four years. To stay really informed about a school and know the facts it is best to become involved by attending PTO and school advisory council meetings. All the staff at this school work hard and want the school to be recognized for all the amazing work.

Love this school and the teachers. My son has lots of progress than his previous school.

All the teachers are incredibly great!! I have had three children go through this school and all of them have great memories from the friends, teachers, and lessons they’ve learned along the way.
