Central Five-Jefferson Elementary School

This school is very diverse in ethnicity which makes all the better for the curricular activities. The learning here is superb, the teachers are strict when necessary, but they make learning the subjects more fun for the kids by conducting fun and educative projects and such.

Everyone from the Administration to the Teachers to the PTA want the best for the students enrolled.

Very disapointed, my son was never a high achiever, but always held his own. Quickley declining in most subjects. I try to help but there is no consistency, i dont know whats going on to help him. Test are few and far between. homework hardly any. Homework is way for parents to see whats going on. Teachers cant get a repore wth children therefore cant tell when or if they understand the work. Maybe not a good idea for teachers to have a whole new set of kids in the school each year, they cant tell what works and what doesnt, everyone leaves at the end of the year. I think this doesnt' most teachers try to care but the child wont' be there long so who cares. I very disapointed. I cant afford it but must employ a tutor, or my son risk repeating.

Great Principal. The school needs alot of work. I happened to be lucky my child was in Mr. Sigs class he knew what to focus on. Being a transition school I think more should be done on homework. I don't think my child was challenged enough.

They must improve on consistency in this school. It seems like each teacher does his/her own thing. Everyone should be doing the same thing especially since there is only one grade here.
