I agree this school has declined in the past a couple of years in all aspects, including the Discovery Program. From the experience we have with the school, I think the school administration has a lot to do with this change. They are not responsible or professional when they handle school issues with the students. It seems as if they are not fully putting in their effort to provide a good learning environment as well.
If I was writing this 4 years ago I would have rated 5 stars. This school has rapidly declined in the past couple of years. If your child qualifies for the Discovery Program then you probably won't have complaints however if your child is not in the DP then it's different. The staff is very nice however too many struggling kids, lack of help and in the past year or so too many bullies. I wish this school becomes the school it use to be.
very nice school , my daughter went in Kindergarten and First grade and now in Second Grade, she loves her school all teachers and Princiapl are very nice and take care of all kids . there is full Security and staff takes all measures to see all kids are safe... i must say the teachers are hard working and take care of kids..
The staff is the most thoughtful, wonderful teachers and employees around.
My two children just started this year at Acres Green and are in the Discovery Program and we are so pleased with the whole school in general. What a true educational experience! The teachers and administration work continuously to provide the best learning environment for the children of Acres Green. What a true community and what a great group of parents to volunteer with. Thank you!
Congratulations Acres Green Elementary on earning an EXCELLENT rating 2 years in a row! This school has so many programs to meet the diverse needs of its students, including a Gifted and Talented program, making it possible for every student to get a truly great educational experience. But the heart and soul of this school are its teachers and administration who work continuously to provide the best learning environment possible, and the parental involvement that supports this incredible staff. The proof is not only in the test scores but the smiling faces on the playground.
very nice and good school, takes all measures for kids security so one can be sure that his or her kids are safe.My daughter is in Kindergarten, she loves her school a lot
If you invest the time to research this school's history and it's current performance, under a tenured staff and administration, it has received the 2007-08 John Irwin School of Excellence Award. The school offers Gifted and Talented programs, as well as , special needs staff & services (including a new to be installed elevator) and door button on the front entrance for those that require them. Any incapabilities would not be a local school issue but a matter to address with the School District. The school Staff & Administration are one of the most capable and progressive teams in the district in supporting the educational needs of its students. This school is leading edge with integrating technology to circulum in delivering 21st century education at the elementary grade level.
If your child requires any services aside from normal regular education this is not the school for you. This school is incapable of providing children with services legally required by federal law.
Your child and their learning is number one here. The staff and administration care about every student. It shows in how they help the kids walk safely into the school, the smiles that greet the children and the creative ways they use to teach every child. I am so thankful my kids can attend this wonderful school.
