North Brookfield Elementary School

This school tries very hard the town is horrible and does nothing for the school the teachers are great my son is in the 2nd grade and he has had great teachers since grade k. North brookfield needs to put more $ into this school the town since ive been here turns its back on the elementary school. If not for the pta the kids would have nothing to do .

I am a former student, and now a parent of a child in the system. The teachers in this school are WONDERFUL! They do the best that they can with what they are given. It is not just the prinicpal...the town doesn't support the school like they should. The school does not get enough money, and I blame the town for that. The principal is retiring,so maybe the new one will turn things around.

I agree with the previous statement made about North Brookfield Elementary School. I was a student in that school for four years and I found that though most teachers were dedicated, the resources were minimal and they were under the thumb of an overly controlling principal. She is more concerned with disciplinary action and finding fault in students than she is with their welfare and education.

I have 2 children in NB Elementary. The teachers there do the best they can. Unfortunatley the resources are not available to provide children with an optimal learning environment. My oldest child was an honor student for all her elementary years. There are no programs available for bright children, and as a result, I feel she stagnated at a time when she should have been excelling. In fact, the public schools in North Brookfield offer very little if anything for kids in the community, these kids don't even have a music class. Also, the principal there is difficult to deal with and will always come to a teacher's defense before a student's - no matter what the situation. I am moving to another town and my main priority is to find a school system that will help my children excel rather than just exist!
