Bascomb Elementary School

I recently attended the Kindergarten orientation at Bascomb for the 2011-12 school year. The administration did a wonderful job organizing the crowd of (my estimate) 100 parents for the incoming K class of approximately 130. Each of the 6 K teachers was present as well as both VP's and the Principal. They were all focused and determined to give us all the information we needed to feel secure in our child's education. It was amazing to me that Ms. Flowers (Principal) was still visibly moved and very emotional about the children even after all the years she has been teaching. THIS is the first sign of a great school....a Principal who is emotionally moved by thoughts of her student's well-being and serious about their academic advancement.

My daughter just started first grade, but we have nothing bad to say about this school! Her teacher last year was incredible, the after school clubs and programs are top-of-the-line, the staff and faculty are accessible, the curriculum so far has been fun but also strong. So far she loves her new teacher and class, and we are completely thrilled with the school! They really do a great job of involving the parents, too. I feel like I know what's going on and have lots of opportunities to volunteer!

Its such a great school, great staff and teachers! Its such a close family atmosphere with other parents as well. I'm shocked at how much my son has learned that not other schools teach.

We LOVE this school. The teachers and administration are incredible. They work so hard to make it a positive learning experience for the children. They make each child feel unique and special and they will even match the personality of your child to that of a teacher if you request. Incredible!!! Don't look elsewhere.

Fantastic school! We have three children currently at Bascomb our 4th grader has been there since Kindergarten. The teachers have all be superb deeply caring and impressive - we haven't had one we didn't like yet. Parent involvement is expected seems like we are at the school in some capacity every couple of days.

My daughter has been at Bascomb for 3 years and it is a wonderful school. Tons of Parent Involvement, Very Attentive Teachers, Loads of extra-curricular activities. The teachers do push the kids to learn and score well on their tests but the kids do benefit and have fun while learning.

My daughter is in kindergarten this year and she has learned so much. We have found the teachers have very high expectations, while maintaining an understanding of each childs level and abilities. My child had truly enjoyed her first year at school and I hope this will set the tone for the rest of her years at Bascomb and beyond.
