The staff is great, and they are truly concerned about the children's well-being. My wife substitutes at the school, is very familiar with day-to-day operations, and has no complaints what-so-ever. While the school is great, the district bends to the teacher's union like a Gumby doll. Students seems to be home more than at school, have a full week off for Thanksgiving, over a week off for Christmas, over a week off for spring break, and have a half-day every other Wednesday. I'm not sure how they get away with this much time off school, but they do, and it's a constant source of angst among the parents. It's nearly impossible to have a dual-income household without your kids spending an inordinate amount of time in after-school care or daycare. Again, no complaints about the school or staff, but the district needs to get some
Excellent staff that genuinely cares about the individual student. Situated in a great community, providing a wonderful environment for the students while honoring the beliefs of a great American hero.
I highly recommend this school my daughter goes there and the staff and teachers are very nice this school deserves five stars
Good School. They are really strict about the kids being late though.
Due to a recent move, my daughter started at Schwarzkopf in the 4th grade. I think it's a good school academically however I am very disappointed in the extracurricular activities - especially for 5th graders as compared to other schools in the area.
I would strongly recommend Schwartzkopf. My oldest son went there from K- 5th and loved it. The teachers are all excellent - except one. She was his 4th grade teacher who definitely preferred girls over boys and was rather obvious about it. Overall though the staff is excellent, and the education is excellent. Highly recommend!
