Ewalt is an excellent school. Teachers are very caring towards students and really want them to succeed. The principal gets to know each family by name. I would agree with the other poster that this is a very family friendly school.

Excellent teachers who work together for the overall benefit of the students, these teacher's truly care about each individual child and helping them achieve their goals and remember that every child learns differently. Fantastic administrative staff, principal is a definite leader and caring about the family as a whole in their child/children's education. The counselor is grade A tops for support on every level, the secretary is a human computer and knows each student, the nurse is great, full time and caring, one of the most family oriented schools I have ever come across.
