Starr King K-8 School

My son has gone to this school for 3 1/2 yrs, he has had 2 really awesome teachers, (1 teacher for 2 yrs cause he was held back)the vice principal has also been really great. My son is no angel, he has had his fair share of sitting in the office, but not once did i feel like these people gave up on him. The academics were always very balanced and when he wasn't where he should be I got great advice on whether or not to hold him back which I did. The only thing that worries me is the middle school being so close. I have been very happy with the overall staff at this school also.

My son has been going to this school for two years. He is the kind of child that needs more one on one than most. So far his 5th and 6th grade teachers have been worthless in that reguard. If your child needs a little more one on one Starr King is not for your child.

My daughter has been going to this school for a few years, I do not feel that they are helping her in the way that she needs. This is a very standard school, if your child may need a little more one-on-one attention this is not the school for them.

I was nervous about my son starting Kindergarten at this school as some of the academic scores were lower than surrounding schools. Well, he has the most wonderful teacher, wonderful teacher's aides and staff and a great school with many family activities and special events and awards for the children. I am very pleased with the school. Additionally, the teacher is careful to keep advanced work available for my son so he won't get bored. It is extra work for her to create a special lesson plan for the small group of advanced kids but she does a wonderful job. The kids are also all very nice and well-behaved.
