Excellent school! Awesome staff! The principal is very attentive to children, parents and teachers. We couldn't be happier!

We are new to the area and have had great experiences at this school so far. We like that it's a smaller school. The principal seems to know everyone by name - students and parents alike - and the kids love her!

This school has had an amazing turn around. There is now goal-oriented school leadership, energetic teachers, and students who are proud to be Johnson Jaguars. The new principal has come in and changed the entire atmosphere for the better.

I too have to agree with this comment Very disappointed in how things are handled with this school. Hopefully the staff can work a little better with parents in regards kids and school matters.

Very disappointed in how things are handled with this school. Their are too many chiefs and not enough indians!

After looking at last year's test scores, I am very disappointed at the progress Johnson made. Prior to that school year, my husband and I checked the scores and Johnson was among the leaders of the surrounding schools, but now I am looking to transfer my daughter to another neighborhood school that has a better result. I don't know what needs to be done to regain their leadership position, but it needs to hapen immediately.

I currently have 2 children attending this school and am an involved parent. I do like the fact that it is a small school, giving more opportunity for individual attention. I have respect for most teachers I've had contact with. There are exceptions. This year's principal does seem to be more involved and more concerned about the school and the students than last year's principal. I think all parents should want to be involved no matter what school their child/children attend.

I am a parent of 2 children that are attending Andrew Johnson Elem., and do not believe the test scores or the child to teacher ratio you are being reported on this site. I am active in PTA because that seems to be the only way I can have a voice about what happens to them at school. The principal is very uninvolved with the parents and lacks motivating the faculty and staff in making the school an enjoyable place to learn and work. This school is very small. There are no options in moving your child into another classroom if you are having conflicts with your current teacher. There are a few excellent teachers that you will thank God for being there. They make the difference.
