Parent involvement
We have recently relocated here from Pennsylvania and are so pleased that our children are in the Elmwood schools. It is a wonderful school with excellent teachers and very involved administrators. Parent involvement is strongly encouraged and I have felt very welcome being a part of our children's school lives. I couldn't recommend it more!
I can't say enough good things about Elmwood Elementary. The teachers and staff are exceptional. A high percentage of them live in Elmwood and send their children to our schools. As a parent, I always feel welcome in the school. The academic programs are challenging for both my accelerated and typical child. The administration is strong, supportive and highly involved.
I find the school and the faculty to be very clicy and the administration is not very student friendly.
Just wanted to voice my opinion about Mrs. V Warners first year with kindergarten. She is wonderful with the kids at school and in the community. Hopefully she will continue to be part of your school's success. I'm glad my child has had the opportunity to have been in Mrs. Warner's class.
I think overall it's not a bad school but I do think that the office staff and a number of teachers need to go back to school and learn to be friendly. Overall the staff is not friendly, for this I have considered paying the out of district fees and send them to Brimfield schools.
I have two children currently enrolled at Elmwood Elementary. Both of them have very enthusiastic attitudes about the teachers, their classmates, and their learning enviroment in general. I am very proud to send my children to Elmwood.
