We're very happy with this school. We don't belong to this district but I heard so much good things that I decided to make sacrifices for my girls to stay at Corey. I can say that I'm very pleased. My daughters have been at Corey since 2nd grade, my other child is in Jr. HS now. They're doing great at school and I know what a big difference the Principal, teachers and other school staff have made. Everyone is so supportive there, from the School Secretary, Debie, the teachers, etc. They keep an open line of communication so that the parents may keep track of their childrens progress. And I almost forgot to mention that they have a 'bully-free' environment. ~~~ de la Merced family

My daughter was transferred to corey elementary school in the 4th grade because I was displeased with another school in the g.G. School district ( lawrence ). Corey has been wonderful! The teachers are amazing...We love you miss sturgeon( sorry I forgot your new married name ) and mr. Gibson...Keep dancing!..Mona in the office....What would we do without you? Everything about corey gives your child a safe, loving environment to learn and grow in. I can't say enough good things about this school. Thank you corey! the kelley family :)

3 of the 4 years at this school have been wonderful. My child has gone from the one always behind and at risk for retention, to the top of his class, with high test scores and cat6 scores in the advanced block. (Sorry if it's seems I'm bragging, but you can't imagine how for he has come. He couldn't read at all when he started in 2nd grade!) I give his teachers all the credit for his progress. Structured, yet flexible to the kids individual needs,they try different approaches until they find what works best for a child who is struggling.

I like this school and am happy with the overall performance but the only thing is they don't have any extracurriculum activities and no parent teacher meeting at all just one at the end of first trimenster. I wish they had better teachers.

My daughter goes to this school and I am quiet satisfied with the overall performance but they don't have different homework for kids with different needs and so my kindergartner who knows how to read still practices phonics and alphabets.As far as I know they don't have much extra curriculum activities for her age.

My 3 have attended Corey since grade K. I have not met a teacher yet who does not truly care about the welfare of the children. Wether the child is a GATE student or needs 'Cougar Club' tutoring, each child is taught as an individual and are given challenges to meet their own personal goals.
