Rand offers a whole child aproach to teaching and meets the needs every child from the very brightest to the struggling learner
I have a first grader and a fourth grader. We have had a steady stream of phenomenal teachers. I can't say enough about the quality of the teaching, the child-centered approach, progressive culture and warm community. The principal is perfect for the school. I love this school.
My son is finishing his first year at Rand. He is going to 1st grade. His kindergarten experience was fantastic with Mrs. Jetter! I am very pleased with the staff and the learning techniques.
Rand is a fantastic school...My son is in 4th grade and has had wonderful caring teachers since he started in kindergarden. My middle daughter who is entering college this year also went to Rand and the education and sense of learning she aquired while there helped her thru middle school high school and now on to college.She was accepted to every college she applied to I HIGHLY recommend Rand to any parent who gives education of their children top priority in their choice of locations to move too
Rand's principal is terrific. There is care and concern for all students in a nurturing environment. A great school for parents who want to get involved.
After going to all the schools last year, you can't go wrong with any of them. Think about your child's personality and how it fits with the schools.That being said, Rand is an exciting, nurturing, organized and vibrant school and community. It has exceeded our expectations and Mrs. Vascimini gets an A+ from us.
Rand is evolving into a remarkable school that deeply cares about children and how they learn. In Sept 2009 the school will be relocated to a brand new, green building. Rand is more than a school its a think tank and an unique and important place.
The PTA does amazing things with the chidren. Plus the PTA is made up of wonderful parents volenteering there time to make Rand a better school. There are so many wonderful opertunities for children to learn about different cultures, music, sports, art forms, writing tools, countries! It's the best place for your child to go if you want them to learn to appreciate nature since it's the 'envionmental school'. When you're child gets to 5th grade they will even do a musical at the end of the year! Any parent would be drunk not to take there child to Rand elementry school!
Good school. Very family oriented. Lots of focus on environment, different kinds of families. Lot of parental involvement.
