This school is amazing! After having my daughters at a private school for several years, I can honestly say the academics at Jacobson are more challenging and well rounded. The teachers really care about the students and the principal knows every student by name. My oldest daughter was in the advanced program and my youngest daughter needed speech therapy, both were easy to access and valuable. I LOVE this school and feel very fortunate that my children have an opportunity to attend a great school right in our own neighborhood.
We have our two daughters at this school. We have lived in England,, Ireland and USA three states (NM, Oregon and now AZ). This is by far the best school my kids have ever attended their opinion !! and they are very happy and contented. Reading these reviews I had to double check at the top of the page that this was my childrens school I had logged into. As for bulling issue my oldest daughter has told me she has never seen any during her time at this school. We could not be more pleased with this school, the teachers and Principal are excellent and my kids grades have increased while here.
Jacobson has great teachers, a dedicated and involved support staff and a really fun principal who loves the kids. My son is very happy there and we're please with the education he's receiving.
I love this school. My kid loves this school as well. He has some special needs. His teacher is very supportive of it. I stopped by at the school and wanted to talk to the teacher without appointment. Teacher was very happy to see me in a short notice. Very good school, teachers and administrators.
This school becomes more of a joke, day after day. The school/district now thinks they have the power to tell me what music class my daughter will take. Excuse me, you are NOT my attorney, you are NOT a court of law nor are you the decision maker in my household. The administration is a joke and talks out both sides of their mouth.
Jacobson is a wonderful school! The teachers love to teach. My children have developed a great love of learning. I believe their teachers at Jacobson have had a great influence over this. The teachers at Jacobson really care about their students and help them reach their fullest potential. I believe my children are getting a phenomenal education. I feel very fortunate to have the opportunity to send my children to Jacobson.
Excellent School. Great teachers, parents, and administrators. My child has been at this school since kindergarten and is moving on to junior high in the honors program. Never any issues with security or gangs. Many kids walk to school, nice neighborhood. We are lucky to have had the opportunity to have been in this district and attend this school, lots of parent volunteers and involvement. Highly recommended school.
I agree with previous post in regard to the wealthy demography of the neighborhood. That is reason it what made Jacobson a racist school itself.Majority of the guardians as well as teachers hold a false attitude of superiority in terms of race, color and class and they are nakedly exposed. So far the merit of the teachers and quality of education are concerned this school is falling behind to many of the district schools in Chandler. That is why also I like previous post for showing the courage not to mention that truth.Bulling is a common practice just due to the background of the students.That is why you will see almost zero presence of non-white students who are in most cases are far superior in merit and attitude and compose a lion's share in district's overall high-grade performance We are from Asian origin. My kids were here for two years and had enough of bashing. I wish this school should come out of their current stance and blend to the actual dynamics of what making Chandler as one of the academically and socially rich cosmopolitan in the state. Otherwise guardians will send their kids to an island that floats itself and to watch free fashion show of its snob teachers.
This is a very engaged elementary school. Teachers and administrative staff are awesome. Has some issues with our daughter that were quickly resolved thanks to her teacher and the staff. I give this school a big kudos for all their hard work!!
I am a parent. my son has been bullied quite a bit. There is a lot of gang violence in all grades. I reccomend there are officers on campus after school at all times. Pick up your kid DONT LET THEM WALK ALONE!!!
