I am very happy with this school and my child is too. So far everyone I have dealt with there has been very caring and so welcoming when you come into the office every single time. What a difference from the last school my child attended. Keep up the great work Keene!

I love this school! Teachers are friendly, principal came and introduced herself and showed us around, even walked us to the classroom and introduced us to the teacher. My son couldn't be happier and is doing much better in this learning environment than his old school.

I love everything about this school. We moved from pennsylvania and was wowed by the difference in the school districts. I was so happy with the teachers my son had. They are tough, but fair. My son needed all of what the teachers had to offer. They give extra help for the DSTP and are very into getting good test scores which is fine. Overall the extracurricular activities for the kids are fun and they happen every time you turn around. I love this school and would recommend it to anyone moving to the Newcastle County Area

I love that my kids are going to a great school like Keene. My son enjoys going to school everyday. The teachers there are really nice and go out of their way to make sure the parents know whats going on in the class.

This is a great school. My daughter went to Keene and I loved the staff and the concern they show the children. I would say that if you are looking for a school this is the school for your child to go to.

My children have been at Keene for the last 3 years, and it has been a wonderful experience! The staff at Keene makes the difference. Everyone there is ready to help. There 'PAWS' system for motivating good behavior, has won them special recognition for its positive effects with the students. The PTA is very active and has activities for the students and parents all through the year. The only bad thing I can say it that it only goes to the fourth grade. I will really miss the staff and the great administration, especially Ms. Spiers the principal! Beth Reel

As a new resident in the state of Delaware I'm very impressed with Keene elementary school. My 3rd grader is very excited about attending school there everyday and that as a parent makes me feel very proud that he attends such a great school that puts education and safety first.
