I think the school is good, but could be better. I know that the teachers have a genuine interest and care for the children that they are servicing. I do think that there has been a lot of changes in Administration and Teachers (as far as turnover). My daughter is in the Gifted Program and she is being pushed that litle extra that I think she needs. Overall they are good school compared to the other schools in Bellwood.
Jefferson School has been the blessing I need in my son's academic future. Jefferson School offers programs geared toward success in school and self improvement. My son is a better student because of the time the teachers and school staff put into the students well-being. They even offer programs that include organizational skills and friendship workshops. I am really honored that my child could be a part of a school that really helps to make the parents life a little easier, and gives the students a chance at bettering themselves. I thank Jefferson School and everyone involved.
Jefferson Elementary school is a really great school academically. My child has learned so much and now my daughter is starting Kindergarten there and has a wonderful teacher. I am very proud to say I have a child that attends Jefferson Elementary School. I only wish that MacArthur Middle School had the same reputation.
