Achille Elementary School

I have a child who was in prek for 2 years straight. He has tourrettes syndrome. His teacher was wonderful and always tried to help in every manner possible. I have another child in the school as well, she attended for the last 2 years also. I've had nothing but good experiences with the teachers that I've dealt with so far. I can say that the PRE K teacher is phenomenal in every way. And I wish she could follow my son through the next 13 years of school. They (the teachers) are definitely not here for a paycheck they truly care about our children.

I have found that most of the time, any of the staff is willing to work around any problems. They also seem willing to help out in any way possible! When I moved here my daughter was in kindergarten, she could not even identify most of the letters of the alphabet. Within 5 months not only could she identify them, she could read. They may or may not be 'updated' but I believe the teachers care for their students here on a different level then most schools. Because they have the smaller classrooms and are more able to do more 1 on 1 time with your child! Teaching can not be an easy job, and its one that lasts a lifetime.

Well as for me I have nothing bad to say about this school.I would recommend this school to any parent.The teachers are good with the students and are there for the students not just for a pay check. I went there when I was school age and now Im sending my son there, I have never had any problems out of anyone .And most of all my son loves it!

I suggest anyone who wants to send their child to this school observe the teachers and talk to other parents in the town to find out what type of education your children will recieve. They are very outdated on their subjects and most high school students cannot even pass the act test.If it were me I would do some cheking on other schools around first.

I don't suggest anyone send their child to this school. They are not trained to handle active little boys and immedialey lable them as having adhd and want them medicated. If it were me I would never send my child to this school, in fact I am now homeschooling my two sons so that they don't have to deal with the negative pressures of this school. My oldest son did end up in counseling because of the negativity of the teacher and priciple from this school.
