My child hates this school. I hate this school. The teachers have no experience. Communitation is very poor. My child was doing great before we came to this school. I have alot to compare to from other schools, and teachers. These teachers don't know what to do when your child is having a problem. And the school has no resources to help. They act like they dont have time to care.
This is an average school. I think the school would be better if they had more money to spend on programs.
My daughter had her first year last year and did very well. Most of the kids and parents are very nice, and the staff is very friendly!
Kolmar is an excellent school. My son has attended this school since kindergarten and we both love the teachers, principal and the entire staff. They treat each and every child as if they were their own child. Kudos to everyone at Kolmar School and the District for its continued support.
I have a 7th grader 5th grader and 1st grader at kolmar and for the most part I am very happy with their education. There is always a teacher or staff member somewhere along the lnes that you clash with but that is true of any school, yes even those top rated schools. Kolmar has made great improvements since we started here and all 3 of my kids love it. sure it would be nice to have more clubs or activities but all that takes money. i'd rather have my child get a good education and foundation for high school than have them be in 20 clubs. Also, more parents need to get involved. our parent group has had the same faces present for years. Hey parents, it's fun to be involved and up at school doing things for our kids, come join a club kolmar does have.
i am a student here and ive been here since kingergarden. kolmar is okay. this year since we have alot more sports and clubs & hot lunches everything is alot beter. we also have new courses like spanish and communications ! sometimes the teachers are really annoying but that okay. the parents dont really get involved much the kids do alot of clubs some things here are basketball , volleyball, cheerleading, track,photography club,science club, art club,step team, && many more. i would say this school is average.
I think Kolmar is a wonderful school,the teachers are wonderful.They keep me informed about my child.If I have a problem the teachers are there to help me with that problem, if I am not satisfied I can talk to someone else.I have not been disapointed .
Office staff is great. Parent group is okay.I can only speak for Jr High and to me it seems like there's nothing for Jr High students. I noticed there's a new Art club but it's only offered for younger grades. All there is of course is sports and since some kids are only here for jr high they're not that comfortable being the 'new kids'. Is there a cool teacher that could have a video game club or anime -lets get with the times some of these kids could design video games or work in animation someday but we invest so much time,money and energy in sports because why ? character, glory days for parents? Bill Gates has character and he was a computer geek. I know jr.high is difficult but it seems all the activities are designed to just contain them and keep them away from the other grades.
My kids have been going to this school for 13 years and the school continues to improve and make changes for the better. They have enjoyed their time at this school.
My kids hates this school.
