Mc Collum Elementary School

I have a daughter who has attended McCollum for two years. I am very happy with the education she is receiving. The teachers I have come in contact with have been nothing but helpful.

McCollum is a wonderful school. From the principal on down every single person we have come into contact with at McCollum has been interested, motivated and enthusiastic. They excel in the special ed department, they're prompt when repsonding to any questions you might have, they seem to know every single student's name within the first week of school, and above all, they care. We transferred our son there after a poor experience with another school, and all I have to say is thank God. We're starting our daughter in Kindergarten there this Fall, and I couldn't feel happier or more secure in our decision.

My Son has only been to this school 2 days but is already showing signs of improvement, his Teacher is outstanding in his discipline area. The office staff is very friendly and the Principal was GREAT!! I have a GREAT feeling about this school. I have to drive 20 miles each way for my son to attend, but it is worth every trip. Thank you Mc Cullom Elementary for all your hard work and friendliness.

My son started at this school after the winter break from another APS school and by far it has exceeded my expectations. He loves and looks forward to going to school. There is great parent involvement. The school has great communication with the parents. The principal cares about every student and speaks to them indivdualy upon arriving. The front office staff was a big help with all of our questions. By far one of the better schools in APS. Great job.

McCollum is a fantastic elementary school. The Principal is very involved and knows most students by name. 3 of 4 teachers we have been involved with have been extraordinarily helpful with teaching to the students not a generic class. The city also operates a before and after school program at the school for only $20 a week per child and $30 for two siblings (attending the school). The best thing about this school is that my son finally feels 'smart'.
