Awful school. Should replace all office staff with people who enjoy working. Communication leaves much to be desired. Teachers on the other hand are alright.

My daughter is at this school and has been for over a year. I won't say the school is bad because the entire education system here is behind unless you put your child in private school. This school is exemplary on within this islands education system. I monitor my child's learning there and supplement it so she won't be that far behind when we rtn to the mainland. If you can afford private school I would recommend it.

This school is doing fine. They have a wonderful support system for the families of deployed soldiers and they support the troops. This is not a DOD school so it is different from what you may be use to but has a state run school, they offer classes for any state staff who aren't familiare with the military to get acquainted with the traditions and hardships that the families and especially the children have to deal with. Get involved if you are unhappy. Become a volunteer so you can see for yourself what goes on. There is no way you can leave a comment like that if you could see what goes on during the day. If you are that unhappy, maybe homeschooling your child/children is the way to go. It takes a village to raise a child not just an elementary school.

My children have recieved a less than average education here! I am sad that being a school on an Army base, this is the best that they can do for our children. This is a total disservice to our troops who are risking their lives to have their children get such a poor education!! If I could put my children in another school, this would had been done by now!!! Poor teaching staff, poor administration and poor work ethics!!

The school is fantastic! The teachers work with kids and parents equally. They set the kids up for success with a various programs available. My sons enjoyed their time at the school! A+++++ teachers!

We have been to many schools and in my opinion this is the worst. The staff is unwilling to work with parents, communication skills are not there and people skills lack. They do not have children s best interest at heart and set them up for failure.(In my experiences)

My daughter goes to this school and peoples opinion will vary. If your the kind of parent who nothing satisfies you then yeah this school will be a problem for you. I personally kept close contact with my daughters teacher, she even gave me her cell # and we also kept in contact by email. She did great and we didnt have any problems.

my child was enrolled at this school last year, that being her first year in that school. I was less than impressed with the education that she received. I was constantly told of her deficinecies, and worked with her at home, but never saw the testing to back it up.

I really don't have any complaints about Solomon. My son is in 1st grade and he seems to enjoy it. The only down side is there is a lot of construction going on now, and a lot of the classes have to be relocated after they have already started getting used to being in the current class. THe teachers seem good for the most part.
