I could not be happier! We love love love Lemon Avenue! The principal is awesome. She is very involved, knows all of the kids and is very fair. The teachers and staff work very hard to get all kids to meet their goals. The PTA is very active and runs many, many events at the school. The PTA also has garden docents, art docents and PE docents. So many active families!
I love Lemon Avenue! My daughter started Kindergarten and loves her teacher and the school. She is doing so well and I love all of the communication and the functions.
I've heard this is a fantastic school by everyone in my neighborhood. Many of my friends have kids here too, and they all love it.
Both of our girls attended Lemon ave, we had 3 different principle in that time and in my opinion the current one is AWESOME, gets right in there with the kids and really LIKES them. The teachers are incredible, talented and caring. Class sizes make their job difficult. The PTA is by far the best I have ever seen, they give and give and give, to help make school a super experience for the kids (they even have a art/ garden/ PE docent program, something most schools do not). Loved our years there!
The teachers are wonderful, parent involvement is spectacular, and there are many many eents and activities to participate in. My only concern is the principal changes every year, and this year she isn't doing a very good job. Luckily the school is run by the PTA and it's members are consistant.
Lemon Avenue is wonderful. The mom that coordinates the after school clubs is doing a great job, my daughter loves that she can do different clubs every month or so.
I have 2 children currently @ Lemon ave and it is the best school my children have attended.The teachers are fantastic & so is the principal.I am extremely pleased!
I am so thrilled to have my son attend Lemon Ave.It has lived up to it's reputation and more! The parent participation is like none other,and the kids level of confidence and happiness are reflected by that.It means something when your child skips to school and comes home smiling.I can't think of a better school!
Excellent leadership with the new principal. Overall Lemon Ave is a great school with most of the teaching staff committed to excellence. My kids love the school!
Our child loves going to school...and that pretty much sums it up. The teaching staff is amazing, we are very happy there.
