Needham Elementary School

Needham Elementary School has been a disappointment. We moved here three years ago and have been discouraged by the quality of teachers. The principal is not interested in academic development. There are many outdoor arenas, gardens, etc. that are never used due to lack of imagination by the teachers.

I love Needham! There is such a feeling of friendliness when you walk in to the building. The principal is very involved with the students. He is rarely in his office when I go into the building, instead you can find him reading with students or dressing up like a character to deliver something to the classrooms. All of teachers that I have dealt with have been wonderful. They not only teach my sons but truly care about them and their activities.

Excellent School! Very hands on, Great Principle. Our daughter excelled and enjoyed school, the only thing lacking were extra curricular activities.
