Great schoo.l Great principal, with an outstanding attitude . People care there. Well organized. My son now loves going to school. By the way we just found a new fundraising site bargainsthatbenefit.com It's free, You can buy numerous deals and bargains and they donate 10% to the school of your choice! Bettr than buying a $15 tub of cookie dough!
Both of my kids go to Donaldson and they love going to class. As a mother I recommend Donaldson Elementary School the teachers are great my kids are learning as well.
As a parent, I'm glad that the District has been able to find the money, even in these bad economic times, to add a teacher to drop class size.
Donaldson is a poor elementary school. There are more than 30 students in the upper elementary grades with 3 of the 4 taechers unable to cope with the high number. My son's self esteem and overall love of learning has tanked having to be at such a lousy school. The principal spends more time at the district office or off campus than he does on campus.
My grandchildren just transferred due to a change of address and they are thriving in Marion Donaldson Elementary School's positive environment.
Everyone at Donaldson is so accomodating. My son wears a hearing aid, and they have taken every step possible, so that his education is uninterrupted. The teachers, staff, nurse and principal are absolutely amazing! My son is excited about school and the teachers are the best of the best!
Donaldson is a small school with a great sense of community..My daughter loves it here!!
We just recently moved into the area. We had a choice between Harlelson and Donaldson and decided to send our children to Donaldson. The was an excellent desicion. The staff is terrific and always willing to help. The teachers take time to help each child. Even the bus drivers are excellent with the children. I am glad we were blessed to find such a terrific school for our children. This is a 5 Star school all the way!
I am very satisfied with the education my son and daughter have received at Donaldson. The teachers are very good and try to encourage parent participation.
