My children attend this school, one in 3rd grade and one in 1st grade. I am a proud parent of this school and I feel that the teachers and the principal here are doing an outstanding job! My wife who works in different schools and has seen many elementary schools in the area has very high regards on the school operation, activities and the overall standards. I am an active full-time Real estate broker, and I make it a point to inform my clients looking for homes in the area about how awesome Homestead Elementary School is, as I hear the same reviews from clients in the area whose kids attend or have been to this school.
The school is the center of our community and the entire community is involved in the school . I am thrilled that my children have the chance to attend such a wonderful school. The teachers are absolutely the best.
Homestead is the epitome of a community. Teachers, Admin, Parents all working together to make life for our kids the best it can be.
Homestead has an amazing staff of teachers, TA's, office secretaries, and many specials that pull together to bring out the full potential in each student. The children are taught not only to learn the pillars of character, but to live them through their actions. We are fortunate to have a dedicated parent core willing to volunteer and provide many extra opportunities for "beyond the classroom" experiences. We love Homestead Elementary!
Homestead has great teachers (my son loves his teacher). Good neighborhood, diversity among students, very active PTA, and above all the teaching as well as non-teaching staff makes this a great institution.
small school atmosphere with teachers who are personable and families who are connected and all with a common goal...what's best for our kids!
I am proud to call Homestead Elementary home. I have three children with individual needs in which the teaching staff met each of their levels and helped them exceed academically beyond my expectations. Within the last couple of years we had a family emergency in which we would not have survived without the support of our Homestead family. They are the best!!
Homestead Elementary is a great school with great teachers. We have had a wonderful and rewarding experience with each grade so far and look forward to another great year!
Very organized staff...teachers that truly care about all of the kids. There's a great atmosphere at Homestead...a fantastic blend of work and play. Kids and parentlws are proud to be called Huskies.
Homestead has great staff and support staff, all care greatly about the students and it shows in the kids academics and their enthusiam about school and extra cirricular activities.
Homestead has a good principal, good teachers and staff that really care about each individual student. We moved from the city and my daughter was 2 years behind her reading level, Homestead teachers gave her the necesary tools and support to catch up those years. Thank you Homestead because she couldn't make it whitout your support!!!
Some of the teachers there are just wonderful! My son was a little behind in reading for 1st grade. The reading specialist there not only helped him catch up, but he's in 4th grade now and an avid reader. He loves his teacher this year and never wants to leave him! The social worker at the school is ever helpful. The nurse is a great help and always caring. The principal really knows how to keep it all moving and do her best at making it a great learning environment for all.
