Scott Avenue Elementary School

I love this school! I was in Mrs. Pettibone's Kindergarten class in 1962! It was a good school then Mrs. Pettibone could teach you to skip like noone else! She was about 150 years old too!

I have two children that just started attending this school in September. My kids are from a private school and I was not thrilled that the economy force me to have to put them in public school. But, I must say this is a great public school. I am very impressed with the school academicly and My kids love it. I now have a different outlook on public schools.

My two children attend this school one in 2nd and one in 3rd. We came from another district and they love this school. The teachers have been wonderful and they really enjoy attending school. I am very happy that my children get to attend such a great school.

I can't imagine a better elementary school than Scott Avenue. I have 2 boys who either have attended or are attending Scott currently. The teachers are very dedicated and care about all the students. And Mrs. Weiss, the principal, is the best there is around. She personally signs all the students report cards and gives them positive feedback. Yes- each and every students report card she comments on. That is how above and beyond the principal and staff go to ensure your children will be successful. Scott Avenue is a great school.

My child has been attending this school since kindergarten. I have found the teachers are very dedicated, will go above and beyond the expectations to teach and assist the children. Mrs. Ellefson has been a fantastic role model in my child's life and she has made a great difference in her learning skills. Principal Weiss has made it possible for the children to have the best learning experience and is doing a great job maintaining a wonderful teaching staff. Scott Avenue gets a A++ for their dedication and fantastic performance. Thank you

This school has some of potential. Unfortunately a lot of discipline issues go unaddressed and as a result safety is compromised and children are distracted from learning.

Scott Ave School has a principal who is wonderful and cares about all the students. Her first week as principal she made it a point to get to know all the kids by name. The teachers and the principal go above and beyond what is expected of them. There are many wonderful programs for the kids, both aiding in education and behavior towards other students. There is also alot of parent involvement.

Scott Avenue is an outstanding public school with dedicated teachers and challenging academics. We have had three children attend Scott, one currently. The leadership and quality of the principal and teachers is excellent. The Teachers really seem to care about there students. The extracurricular activities are limited in scope but what is available is fantastic. The play is the only fine arts program available. There is no music program but from time to time they will come up with a piano class, or an etiquette class. The bottom line is that there are a limited amount of resources available and I know the school attempts to allocate their funds where they deem best. This leads me into the parent involvement. It seems mediocre from the surface. I believe this area could improve.

Great teachers. I have twins that attended kindergarten 06. Both teachers showed they care, are very patient and keep parents well informed. Ms. Marquez nd Minasian were excellent.
