Northeast Elementary School

My daughter is in 5th grade now, and she has gone to Northeast Elementary since Kindergarten. I have to admit that my review of Northeast back then would not be the same as it is now. I have seen so many positive changes in Northeast in the last few years such as leadership, teacher quality, discipline, safety, and academic rigor. Northeast has become a school that I am proud to have my daughter going to, and I will send my son to in a few years, even though we do not live in the attendance area. Great things are happening at Northeast Elementary, and I am completely confident that great scores are to follow. It takes time to make changes this vast in a school, but Northeast is on the right track. If you don't believe me, go in for a tour and see for yourself what's going on there. I think you and your kids will fall in love with Northeast just like we did.

I placed my daughter here after having her first year of preschool at a private school. Worst mistake. Everything my daughter learned her first year of school she seemed to forget this year while at Northeast. This is a HUGE disappointment as this is the school I attended. The concern is more of the curriculum and what you expect your child to lean on a daily basis. I have not had any concerns with teachers or much interaction with the principal but the majority of my concern was the curriculum. I would expect learning about numbers to be a basic in preschool. I was surprised to find out that it was not.

Since Mr. Clow has become principal of Northeast, there have been many positive changes. The top priority of our school is maintaining a safe learning environment. The students and staff create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Our actively involved community and staff work together to provide many opportunities and activities that are unique to our school. I am proud to work at Northeast and to one day have my own children attend Northeast.

Northeast has been our family's school for four years now. We are absolutely thrilled with our experience. Both of our kids have had fantastic teachers and the office staff is wonderful. The school is very welcoming and encourages parent involvement. Mr. Clow is a fantastic principal - he knew my kids by name within a month of them attending the school. They just LOVE him. We are pretty involved with the PTO and the future is looking very bright for our little school. Our PTO just hosted Math Night with over 500 people in attendance....Literacy Night and Science Fair are coming up. We are working hard to incorporate new technology in our classrooms, provide unique experiences for our kids and teach them about community service and looking out for them less fortunate. As a mother of four, I think our parental involvement in our children's education is the most important factor in their success. The next thing that matters of course is the quality of their school, principal and teachers. So far, Northeast Elementary gets an A from us on all levels.

My grandson and my great-nephew both attend this school and they are both thriving! My grandson looks forward to going to school (he's in Kindergarten) and he even loves doing homework!

The kids and staff are amazing at this school. There is such a feeling of family connection both from the children's home and in the school!
