Thomas E. Bowe Elementary School

I went to the school for exactly 5 months and I was miserable.Not only were the students bullies and people were racists, but the teachers were rude and not helpful. From what I heard from other students about some of the teachers they had at that school,they were mean and they didn't listen to their explanations.The guidance counsler; however was very kind and helpful.She listened to what i had to say and she told me what I should do about it.For parents who are considering sending their child to this school,I'm warning you now that they are VERY rascist at this school,whether it's students or teachers

Thomas E. Bowe has a collection of the best teachers and staff I have seen in NJ. Of course there is always people who will complain but overall the teachers are there for the students. The extra curricular clubs and academic enhancements are student driven and teacher supported. In the area of spe. ed., mostly all the teachers are trained and able to work work with students who have unique needs. This is a wonderful school.

I agree. I found teachers to be rude and not able to meet with you after school.

I went to this school for 4th-6th grade. The person above me presented an unrealistic view of the school. No students will not move out and go to private school, which is what I think she was trying to say. The teachers are, for the most part, good quality and I cannot understand what her problem was with the school. There actually are advanced enrichment classes, I know because I was in an advanced reading class in 6th grade. There is advanced math for every grade. At this age group, there really isn't any need for more advanced things, these kids are all 9-12 years old. It leads me to wonder what she will say about the Intermediate School if she has problems with this one. I think that there really should be improvement in the Intermediate School, though.

Hire better quality of teachers & give more encourgement to students. Create advance classes, such as Math, Writing, Science, etc. Devote best Music programs are the good idea. Need to improve ranking in this school. We all hope to be a better school. Lots of students are going to or move to private school. We all care about the quality of teachers, students & environment.
