Antioch Elementary School

This is our first child to enter school so I don't really have a lot to compare it to, but we love Antioch! Our daughter is now in the 1st grade and we have seen the transition of principal from Mr. Hoover to Ms. Dillon. We loved Mr. Hoover. He brought so much energy to the school. Ms. Dillon was his asst. principal so she seems to be following in his footsteps. Everyone, from staff to teachers, is so friendly and caring. As a working mom I can't always participate as much as I would like but I'm never made to feel bad about that. Our daughter is performing very well academically. We couldn't be more pleased.

My daughter has really thrived at Antioch. The teachers are very caring. The students are well-behaved, for the most part. The PTO is amazing and works incredibly hard to improve the school, and treat the staff and school to wonderful experiences.

Antioch is a wonderful school! I love the administration and the PTO is fabulous. We are moving out of the area and are so sad to leave this wonderful group of teachers, and parents. I wish there were more extracurricular activities but this is a Union County thing and the prinicipal would like it as well but he has to follow rules. Highly recommend Antioch to anyone moving into the area. Warm and welcoming. Lisa C.

I love this school! My kids have been going here since it opened in 2004. The teachers are great and the administration is wonderful. The energy of the school is high and everyone is very enthusiastic and happy to be there. If the neighborhood we live in now gets reassigned away from Antioch, we will be moving so my youngest can continue to here.

Antioch is a really wonderful school. The entire faculty - teachers, assistants, office personnel, administration - all really have the kids' best interests at heart. They care so deeply about how to best cater to each child's learning style and how to maximize their elementary experience. I'm especially excited about how each child is challenged at his/her particular level rather than being all routed down the same text or subject level. Each education plan is definitely specific to the individual child's level. I can't say enough great things about this school!

A new principal this year is making great strides. There's no reason this school located in an affluent area shouldn't be fabulous. Mr. Hoover understands that, and it taking full advantage of engaged kids and eager parents. I wholly recommend this school.

My son just began kindergarten in September and is having so much fun learning. The principal is new this year and has been very visible and accessable to parents. I'm glad we chose to send our son to Antioch.

Have been very pleased with the school so far in this school year. My son seems to be doing very well, and have no complaints with faculty or administration.

The leadership is not there for parents. Anything you have to say falls on deaf ears. I am looking at other schools for next year. I will not return to Antioch.
