My son was in kindergarten at Robertson School last year.My experience is good. All the teaching staffs are working hard to improve school result in future. my son's teacher was very caring, systematic, strict and hard-working. The Principal of the school is also very easily approachable. Robertson school arranges various programmes to help their student's academic problems.Most of the staffs are exellent.

My child is a kindergartner at Robertson Elementary and I find the school to be very poor and not have their ducks in a row at all. There are constant safety issues. The principal is in his own world. My daughter is ignored because she is smart and knows most of the work. Its sad really! I am trying to find her a better school and fast!

About the tests


In 2008-2009 Connecticut used the Connecticut Mastery Test (CMT) to test students' skills in reading, writing and math in grades 3 through 8, and in science in grades 5 and 8. The CMT is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Connecticut.
