Hill-Roberts Elementary School

my children went there the staff were wonderful. They met the needs of each child as a whole, not just taught them

Having switched my children to Hill-Roberts this year, I must admit that I was concerned about how the curriculum would compare to the private school they attended previously. I am SO impressed with Hill-Roberts. The principal is outstanding and the curriculum is both challenging and creative. I look forward to my youngest attending this fall... There is ALWAYS something community oriented going on at the school. I couldn't be happier...

We moved to Attleboro from Mansfield over a year ago and my son loves Hill Roberts. I am very impressed with his homework and the extra curricular activites as well as the many social activities that they hold during the year. My son is excelling in reading & math and gets challenging homework. The class room sizes are small and the teachers seem wonderful and caring. Hill Roberts has superior security in place and is not so big which makes it more community-like and not quite as confusing.

Hill-Roberts has been the best placement for my son. We moved here last year and the school provided an educational rich and fun learning environment. They have YMCA programs, after school enrichment, and many school activities. I have a 3 year old daughter who I am excited to have at Hill-Roberts soon.

A school that is so singularly focused on MCAS scores that they neglect the core educational needs. They are so concerned about their MCAS scores they attempt to retain children from entering the 3rd grade until they are able to score well. The school does not provide extra-curricular activities or performances to demonstrate the child's learned skills or to give an opportunity for the child to shine. This is the first elementary school I have seen that has never invited parents to a 'show' or had a father/daughter or mother/son event or similar parent/child activity to build self esteem. Over the years, my children (multiple ages) have been in 4 different school districts and Attleboro is by far the least advantageous for my children. It has a distracting open class room environment (4 classes together w/ only a book case to separate).

Having 1 daughter in 1st grade, I have found this school to be FANTASTIC. The teachers and staff truly care. Music, Art, Gym, Computer, Library facilities and more are available to every child. The PTO is sure that all parents have the opportunity to be as involved as they want. You receive calendars with extra curricular activities throughout the year that draw the children in and incorporate school and civic involvement. Cultural diversity is accepted and the children are allowed to express themselves without fear of admonishment. I would give this school an A+.
