Sagamore Hills Elementary School

We have 3 children currently at Sagamore Hills (since Kindergarten), and find the neighborhood school a wonderful environment. The size is just right for kids to try everything it offers and actively participate. Teachers and administrators know the children and help get them get what they need to be successful. They should be well prepared for middle school and the real world! Another great thing about the size is that the kids and parents don't get lost or feel like a number. Everything they do counts and gets noticed.

We have been at Sagamore for 4 years so far with 2 children. We couldnt be more satisfied. The school is very diverse and we love that all cultures are embraced. We have had positive experiences with all our teachers and our children have been well prepared. what I love most is that the teachers and principal welcome parental input, ideas and involvement. Sagamore is a true community school were we all participate in improving the education of our children.

Sagamore is a great neighborhood school! We have 2 children at the school, and they LOVE it! The kids have art and music weekly (our art teacher is outstanding!). We also have so many programs and activities, including fun family events (sock hop, dinner night, spring carnival, talent show) and opportunities for enrichment in math, reading and science! Sagamore also has strong parent involvement. And we love that our children to go to school with other children in our community!

Sagamore is an excellent elementary school. I love the fact that it is small and teachers know the children across grade levels. As an involved parent I like knowing I can volunteer in the classroom & get to know the teachers and administrative staff. There is an intimacy at Sagamore that I think larger elementary schools lack. The community is strong, the kids are great and so are the parents. We have very strong music and art programs. The children have a school wide art snow annually - it's mazing! We have choral, orchestra and band concerts throughout the year, it's quite impressive!

The Great Schools rating by far does not reflect my experience at Sagamore Hills. The teachers that my children have had were excellent. The teachers challenged my children academically but yet supported them through the process. They also fostered my children's social and emotional growth. The leadership staff is superb. The principal and her staff is always willing to hear a quick story in passing or schedule a lengthy discussion. They are very supportive of the students, parents, and faculty. I could not be more happy with my decision to send my children to Sagamore!

I moved to this area for the school and I have been very impressed. This is my first year and my son is in 1st grade. The teaching is excellent; he is making great progress. The parental involvement is fantastic. Many parents volunteer for all sorts of activities and it just has a community feel. I love the diversity of the school population. I am very happy with the direction of this school.
