Loved the teachers and my three kids were able to get an incredibly awesome education here at this school. Unfortunately, the principal was unfriendly and unavailable to both parents and teachers. Hopefully there will be a new school principal soon because this school is too incredible to be brought down by poor leadership. Again, awesome teachers, awesome students, horrendously disappointing principal.

This was my daughter's first school in the US, she arrived here at the age of 8, we are foreign nationals. I was amazed at how fast she picked up the language thanks to the extraordinary support of her teachers. She was never left behind in the curriculum, never made her feel isolated. She loved this school from day one. Thanks to Ms. Garea, her first teacher, and to all of you who made her love her new culture, that was priceless to me. This is her last year in Kenwood, she will miss you all greatly. I definitely recommend this school.

I used to be a student here and I loved every moment. I miss it badly and the teachers here are the best in the world. I would recomend this school over every other. The teachers here know what's the most important to teach and make sure the kids understand it. There seriously isn't enough words to express the gratitude I feel to have been given the gift of going to this school and, I hope many other kids get to have that same experience as I had here. I love and miss all my teachers including (Mrs. Kathy, Mrs. Kafferly, Mrs. Clemons, Mrs. Chatnueff, and the math teacher in the advanced special child program. I love you all. Thank you for giving me a chance. -Shara Christie

We have had 5 children go to this school. It has been a great experience for all of them. The teachers are wonderful, caring people. They always keep you 'in the loop' as to what is happening with your child. They always encourage them to do their best. This will be the last year that we have someone there. We will miss the school.
