The teachers are wonderful. They always seem so upbeat and are good role models. My child is very happy here. Parent involvement in the school isn't as good as expected, but most say it is because of the economy.

School is small but this allows you to get to know the staff on a more personal basis. I feel my child has a safe environment with many learning opportunities. Most of the staff is like family. The librarian, resource teachers, and other staff promote reading programs as an important educational tool. The PTO is always seeking volunteers to allow parent involvement. Proud parent. Many Thanks to Ms. Atkins for teaching my kids to read while running a tight ship, Mrs. Prince whose patience outlasts most, and all the rest of the Warrior Elementary Staff who always try to 'Do the Right Thing'.

I think the school overall is excellant, although this year I am having some difficulties with the teacher. I was an involved parent last year but this year I have been made to feel less than welcome by the teacher. I stay away now unless there is a what I perceive to be a real problem. I am looking forward to next year with hopes that once again I can join in my child's educational experience with high expectations for a great year. I have given up on that for this year. I encourage my child to do the work and pay attention to the lessons, and behave as best as any child could behave. Other than that I leave it alone, because it's not worth hurting my child over.

My children started at Warrior Elementary this year - changing from an expensive church school to the public system. I could not be happier! The principal, Mr. Frugoli, does a phenomenal job and knows the students by name. The breakfast program is a huge bonus and all the teachers and staff are helpful and kind. My children seem very happy there and I feel like they are well taken care of. I'm so glad we made the change. Lori Stephens - mom to Emily (1st grade) and Aaron (Kindergarten)

This school was abysmal. During my time there it was a (slacker) students dream. The teachers were blind to anything. The best teachers got out of that school. I am glad they closed that alleged institution of learning. Hopefully the children of that community will have a chance at a better education at Mortimer Jordan.

I am pleased with the academics. The school has a lot of help for special needs. Its a safe and caring enviroment. They also keep parents involved in the academic and activity of their children.

I have one child in elementary here and one in the middle school and I have one starting next year here also. I am very pleased with Warrior and the academics. All of the teachers are caring and wonderful with all of the students. I am a very involved parent and the teachers and principals here are always eager to keep me informed of my childrens progress and things that I need to work with them on at home. I would not have my children in any other school. I am more than satisfied with them here. I encourage parents that are looking for a school for their kids to check this school out.
