Dore Elementary School

Oh Wow! I am shocked to hear that. I have never had that problem with anyone in the office or anyone else at Dore. Actually the only person I've ever had a problem with was the security guard yelling at kids.

Everyone interprets their experience differently. I have NEVER had any issues with the office staff. My child has gone to Dore for 7 years & the office staff have always been very helpful & accommodating. They genuinely seem to care about the students & the school, more than some teachers. From what I've seen they go above & beyond. I've also been in line at the office & seen them deal with rude parents who had serious entitlement issues & were making demands, and a few times parents trying to get their kids in & didn't live in the area or didn't have any documents. The staff still seemed helpful even when they were getting attitude & being yelled at. I give the office staff, teachers, and administrators a lot of credit for having to deal with "problem" parents. I couldn't do it or deal with the ignorance. Dore provides a great learning environment for my child, and that is the most important thing. I hope people read all of the reviews not just the negative. Sometimes in the heat of the moment people don't think about how they've contributed to a situation & it mars their opinions. Dore is a great school with great staff (OFFICE & TEACHERS & ADMINISTRATORS)

Not happy with the school. Some of the support staff need to be fired! I really wish I could post names, but that would be unethical.

I agree that some of the office staff can be rude, but the teachers, principals and the curriculum taught there are very good. My son started kindergarten not knowing how to read and after about 3 months in Mrs. Desantis' class he was reading small sentences. By the end of the year he became a very good reader.

I think Dore is and can continue to be a great school for all kids of all race, creed, and sex. I think if the parents along with the staff at door come together as one our children can contine to be taught and learn to become successful. We as a people need to learn its not about us its has and will always be about our children future. So, with that being said can we help our children become successful men and woman of the world.

This school only worries about things that don't matter. Instead of worrying about the children and there education, they worry about things like, where your from, where you live, and what kind of background you have. If your a little less fortunate, they treat you like your a nobody.

I'm a former student of dore and during my 8 years there i found that they push me over my the limit. Found my weak stop and help me with them. It was harder being one of three african american in the class but we all got a long great. The teacher there was great! they all had there master, and there ways of teaching was remarkable weather it was humor or game it mad me what ia today. There was some good stop team there, but just not what i was looking for. I was the vice president of the school student government 8th grade year and was on three 5yrs. Dore is all around a great school and was number 1 in the city the last 3 year i was there.
