My son attends RPE and it has been an outstanding educational experience. The teachers focus on the whole child and everything focuses on making learning rigorous, but fun for kids! The climate of the school is positive and welcoming. Wouldn't send my kids anywhere else!

What a great school! Both of our kids went to Rosa Parks kindergarten through 5th grade. The teachers were very interested in our kids' success. They had great opportunities for field trips (Washington D.C., camping, etc..). I feel like my kids were very well prepared for middle school and high school.

Love this school! My child has been there for over three years and is doing great. Each year we have had great teachers who were very involved and my child has really thrived there. Never had a problem that was not immediately addressed and resolved. If I could give it 11/10 I would!

The school has some unique qualities about it and strives to provide a good education. However, if your child is different than there mold, the child maybe forgotten. Way too much time is spent on non-academic affairs. Better leadership would help make this good school a freat school. Leadership focuses on the test schores instead of the students.

My two boys have been in Rosa Parks for three years now. It is an excellent school. Mix of grades at lower levels provides opportunities for kids to work at their own level. Feedback from teachers excellent - push for excellence, especially in reading, strong. I would recommend this school. It had the highest standardized test scores in math and reading in the entire county of all elementary schools last year. Top school.

With 28 - 30 children per class several are slipping through the cracks. We pulled our son out into a private school with 13 children per class and he is thriving.
