Jefferson Elementary School

I have had a wonderful experience with Jason Lee Elementary. The staff that I have interacted with are very kind and caring to my children. I have 3+ children who attend Jason Lee Elementary in all various grades and each teacher has been spectacular. I choose to be as involved as I can by serving on the PTA and volunteering for as many of the field trips or activities each grade has and I have found that the sense of community amongst JLE students and staff is strong. I have children at all levels educational wise - some who need additional assistance with the curriculum and others who exceed expectations. And no matter the level, my kids needs have been met. With regards to teachers, I understand that not all personalities mesh well and there has been a couple instances over the years where I could see that a teacher's personality did not mesh with what I wanted for my children. Not that the educator was lacking in skill, education or understanding but simply that I know my child and know that there are instances of good, better and best for that particular child. I would then voice my concerns to their current teacher and ask that when placements were made, to advocate for my child as their own and recommend a placement that would be best for the child and not just be placed at random. When I am able to communicate, I find that my children are placed appropriately and with who fits them best. I have been extremely pleased with all but one of my children's teachers (and the one teacher I didn't care for is no longer there). They have all been very caring, respectful and encouraging to my children which has made each year wonderful. My kids can't wait to go back to school each year and I know it is due to the great teachers and staff. We have recently made the switch from Class Dojo to Parent Square (two years ago) and I believe it was for the best. Communication is easier and I feel like I am well informed. Behavior Support: One of my children needed extra attention in this department and the VP and councilors did an excellent job at keeping me informed of my child's behavior and the steps to help get my child on a better path. My child never felt belittled and was always given respect. Between the staff at school and extra home reinforcement, my child has made huge strides to be a better student, friend and member of the community. I have really valued the way staff handled my child. I would definitely recommend Jason Lee!

This school does not comply with court orders regarding it's students. I highly recommend taking your children elsewhere.

Incredibly positive and focused on children development across every growth milestone

The negative reviews from concerned parents are in alignment with my families experience. It is not a good environment for the emotional development of the children in their care primarily due to the actions of the faculty and staff.

My children have thrived at LCS. Clean classrooms, well-equipped, and quality teachers. My kids are receiving a true education.
