Jordan Elementary School

This school is a joke, if I could give it a ZERO I would. Cutbacks and no money, mean no field trips for students. Parents report problems to the school and it literally takes them 6 months to send out a paper to alert other parents of the ongoing situation. If I had known it was going to be like this I would have found another school for my child. They are failing in the no child left behind and have NO quality challenge courses for those who excel. The Stars program is a joke!- barely 1 child from each class can particpate. There is no way I will keep my child at this school next year!!

Great teachers, healthy lunch and snack program, Blessings in a Backpack for students in need to bring home a backpack full of food each weekend, Distinguished Principal of the Year for Minnesota (Stacy DeCorsey), the SMART room for learning while exercising, SMARTboards in most classrooms (working on getting them into all of the classrooms) and too much more to mention!

I am very happy with the quality of educaiton that my son is receiving in his second grade classroom. His teacher is very kind and has been an inspiration to my son. This school really seems to care about the students.

My daughter needed some extra help with her speech and language skills and since our insurance would not provide us with the funding to get her a speech thearpist we ended up enrolling her in Preschool class here in Jordan. I am now so thankful that we did for the teachers and the other staff members are second to none and I firmly believe this program/school is 5 times better than any private program out on the market. Again the staff is so caring and professional plus the daily updates on activities let you know everything that your child did that day really helps keep you involved as a parent and it also helps the child with their memory retention of what she did earlier today. A pure A+

I have been very impressed with Jordan Elem. The faculity and environment is wonderful. I am impressed with the new healthy snack program they have introduced and they are trying to cut trans fat out of the hot lunches. They routinely practice lock downs and bad weather scenarios. The quality of the teachers and curriculum is fantastic and they welcome parent involvement in all aspects of the school and your child's education.
