Anderson (Alex) Elementary School

Anderson is a very nurturing school, The entire staff have one thing in common, the children are their first priority. The principal is by far the best principal I have come in contact with. Overall GREAT SCHOOL!!

The staff is amazing and cares for all students. A very positive place to be! The kids are great, but parent involvement could be better.

As an involved parent with my kindergarten last yr I started doing noon duty -1 day a week. This yr I continued. I believe we need more parents involved. Overall the teachers are awesome -but parents need to be involved.

Several of the parents/teachers lack respect for the children. The Principal only listens but not hears what you have to say.

All 3 of my children have attended or are currently attending Anderson. All 3 are GATE students and we've had great years at Anderson. There's a couple of teachers I'll request my children not get, but they've always been very accomodating to my request. 2 of my kids were in the Merger Community and I'm sorry they've discontinued the program before my 2nd could complete it and my 3rd could have a chance to begin it. However, I understand and my kids are still excelling in their learning. The office staff is also quite wonderful. The ladies (Georgia, Luanne, Irene, etc.)are always very kind and willing to help the parents and the students. They rock!

The academic programs are some of the best around, teachers are involved and caring and spend time with their students to ensure understanding of the lessons. The principal is very involved with the teachers, classes, and students. She provided a stamp club and other lunchtime opportunities for students and brought a lot of student support by bringing science camp, student council, peacebuilders, and interactive assemblies to our school. Our school encourages all students to excel and wants to see the arts and sciences continue to be important as the students also learn and meet standards set by the state. I am very happy that my child attends Anderson and have heard the same from most parents. It is a positive, safe, and exciting place for my child to learn.
