Clara Barton Elementary School

this school is great.. my 2nd grader loves his teachers and I think the schools test scores and stats are further proof of how good it is. (Clara Barton is only for K through 3rd grade so if a parent claims their student was in the school for 6 years something doesnt' add up. just saying...)

I think the school is great! My child is attending kindergarten and is now reading at a first grade intermediate level. The teachers seem dedicated and prepared. Indeed there's a higher population of special needs children that are integrated into the regular curriculum. But I guess we live in pluralistic society where everyone deserves a chance. Now that the school only goes up to third grade classes are smaller and I find it's more child-centered thus allowing for more academic enrichment. My child loves Clara Barton School and feels part of the school community

This school, and district, provide limited resources to special education. There are more students in self-contained class than there are in regular elementary classes. So, the students with the most needs get the least amount of help. This is ridiculous and it puts the special education teachers at a tremendous disadvantage. The use of classroom assistants is just based on numbers, rather than the individual needs of the students. If you have a child with special needs, don't move to Bordentown.
