I have two kids at JFK and we love it. The teachers and staff are all so welcoming and caring to all the kids and the school itself is beautiful and very thoughtfully set up thanks to the renovations. They do a great job at tailoring the experience for kids with break out sessions based on what kids
Posted by a parent on 11/21/2024Our child has been going to JFK since kindergarten and is now finishing 4th grade. He has had small (10-15) classes with caring and dedicated teachers. The administration is solid and seem to be working towards a better school for all. Sure there is always a couple disruptive kids in his class each
Posted by a parent on 5/12/2014When I worked at this school I was mortified by the bad behavior that was reinforced with positive things such as games and playing. The teachers should learn how to use the Responsive Classroom model. However, I was surprised when I asked a student to line up and he gave me the finger, while his pa
Posted by a teacher on 3/24/2014We have two children at this school, and have generally had a positive experience. Every time I have been in my children's classrooms when school is in session, I have seen engaged children, dedicated teachers, and well managed classrooms. We do hear of occasional discipline problems, but they are a
Posted by a parent on 2/8/2014I have two children at JFK and I have been very happy. Our kids' skills are above grade level and I feel that they are adequately challenged. The teachers are very accommodating and we have had nothing but good experiences. Most importantly, our kids are happy with the school. When I have met with t

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageProbably an okay school if your child doesn't have a disability and/or isn't gifted. In my family's experience, the school does not support my child with a physical disability and does not challenge them or acknowledge their other gifted areas. If your child has a disability, know that you may need to fight the school at every step of the way. I would recommend not trusting that they are providing support and doing regular check ins with the teacher/school.No parking, let alone for a child and/or parent with a disability (one parallel "handicap" parking space without access to get a chair out, and that a staff member parks in). Had to carry my child down the street to get to and from school too many times.The one bright spot at this school is one of the Kindergarten teachers (Mrs. Blair) who is a gem.Other Review4y ago - Edmunds Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageICS is a hidden gem! It provides the best education I know of in this area. This school offers a very high level academic curriculum in a caring atmosphere. Academics are rigorous, but taught in a way that engages students so that they own their own learning, which lets them enjoy it. Students gain independence but also learn how to collaborate effectively. The faculty is second to none. The student body is very diverse. We feel so lucky that we found this wonderful school for our daughterParent Review7y ago - St. Francis Xavier School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWith multiple children, we have been at St. Francis Xavier for many years. All of them started at age 4 in the Pre K program. It is a place that our children feel at home when they are not. All have thrived in this safe and secure school environment and were well prepared for the rigors of a preparatory high school. The teachers and administration all work together for the success of each student. The community at St. Francis is strong with participation from all families. It is a very comforting place to spend any extra hours you may have volunteering. St. Francis Xavier has a strong academic curriculum that includes Catholic faith, art, foreign language, music, STEM, digital learning and RECESS for all. We couldn't be happier to be part of this thriving school. If your child needs something more, check out this school. You will not be disappointed!Parent Review6y ago - St. Joseph School
