McKinley Elementary School

My kids have attended this school for 3 years and my husband also attended this school as a child. The atmosphere is wonderful and the teachers are great. I wish they had a program for advanced or gifted students but other than that I cannot complain. It's been a wonderful experience. The neighborhood is really nice too!

The teachers work very hard at this school and make everyone feel welcome.

Both of my sons have had wonderful experiences at Roosevelt. The teachers are very supportive and caring. The principal has foster a great sense of community with the school. I highly recommend this school.

It's okay, but one thing that bothers me is the school's consistently bad test scores. The school does not seem to be able to make any real progress in this area. I do, however, like that the school has a uniform policy. Though I wish more American schools would do this, it does not really alter too much the environment of the school.

My daughter transferred to EBSOLA in 3rd grade from an out-of-state immersion school. She is a native English speaker, and she was challenged to become proficient in Spanish. She rose to the challenge and is bilingual in just a year and a half. Here's what you should know: A large percentage of students enter school with a knowledge of Spanish, so your native English speaker will need to catch up. If you are not bilingual, you will need a translator app to assist your student with homework. The school shares a building with another elementary school that has had shocking behavioral problems. There is, at times, not enough communication from the administration and teachers.
