Mary Evelyn Castle Elementary School

Our oldest has attended Mary Castle for Kindergarden, 1st and 2nd grade. We have been very pleased with the school and his accedemic progress. He is a pretty average student however he has been helped so much by his class teachers and lots of other staff members. In first grade he was greatly helped by some informal speach lessons and with extra fine motor skills in 'the doodle club' (very clever) We also know some of the stretch students very well and they seem to be very happy with the program. They are appropriately challenged according to their personal strengths, Lastly, the principal is a real modivator she puts her heart and soul into this school, you can really tell.

What a fantastic school! The Kindergarten teachers are very attentive, and include parents in the education of their children. I love the way parents are kept advised of their children's progress, and my daughter has a really fantastic teacher.

They Have A Serious Racist Problem. Their stretch program is great, but students are evil and they need to get their school on track.

Great school for preK. Our daugther is 4. The staff, kids and activities are nurturing, a broad socio economic and cultural mix that provide a good foundation aside from what parents do at home. Moreover we co-parent in split homes. Although the classroom performance and communication is targeted for 1 home I have made inroads to communicate with school, teachers and visit to school. That is a good thing if parents are split. Thanks.
