I'm sorry to hear that you had a bad experience with our principal. Bullying should be taken seriously. I hope you can resolve your concerns with her and perhaps any parents and/or teachers that share your thoughts. You can always set up a meeting with the school district if you feel you need to go above and beyond. I love our school and it's not often that we hear of anything like this going on.

Every teacher knows their students and they really care about them. From the principal to the teachers, everyone is approachable. It feels like you've known them for a long time. I feel safe that my kids are in Allen School

The principal is very approachable and open for suggestions and comments. She is also concern about students grades and behavior, most especially in STAR test. 2nd and 5th Grade teachers, I would say that they are very dedicated to their work and very concern to their students. Most of the teachers and employee's are friendly. The PTA Assoc. is well organized with their projects for the improvement of the school. The school offers after school activities for kids development. Parents are cooperative.

My child attended Allen School since kindergarten. The principal is also a very caring individual and is more than willing to work with the parents to solve any issue(s). They truly have the absolute best teachers and staff. We will miss everybody greatly!

I am very pleased with the curriculum that has been provided to my daughter so far. We have been lucky in that we have had great teachers who truly seem to care about the kids and their learning experience. It is instrumental these days that parents get involved to better this school's availability of programs. We need to see much more involvement here to get to that level. Only a small core group seems to really care, so Allen parents, speak up and get more involved! It really makes a difference and your kids will notice. We need more programs to help enhance the learning experience here.

I am very pleased with the curriculum here at Allen. My son's interest in learning is constantly being refreshed everyday he attends. The school's approach on bullying is excellent, as well as their dedication to educating future leaders. Parent involvement is never shorthanded here, and that is a big plus for our kids today.
