My youngest child was moved into this school from a rival district, he was not only accepted but embraced. There is a lot of love in what the teachers and staff do. I could search forever and not find a better school for my child. They have an accelerated learning program that my child was placed in and he has done exceptional. He is provoked to thought, not a number to pass on to someone else, but a true individual that has been given an education. My hat is off to all that support this school and staff.

It was our first year back at a public school in 9 years. I can't say enough good things about everyone we've dealt with there from the principal and teachers to the after-care staff. First class operation! Without a doubt the best feelings I've erver had about what we received for our tax dollars!!!

The first time we were stationed at Tinker AFB, we moved next to Schwartz Elementary. Two of our three children attended this school. It was hard to leave! When we were restationed here I knew that we had to be back in this school. The staff are outstanding and several of the teachers have become close friends. The children are held to a high standard and they perform accordingly. They are expected to shine, and shine they do. After having been involved in other public schools, I really do know what a gem this one is. Recently our 6th graders visited the local Junior High. They couldn't believe how small the library was, because the Schwartz Library was huge in comparison. Again, the Staff make this school. I would highly recommend Schwartz Elementary.

This is my 1st experience with my child being in school she is in pre-k and loves the teacher and so do I. I stay home with my children so I have been able to spend alot of time teaching them how to read and write.I was worried she would be bored, already knowing the basics of pre-k, but i was very suprised to know that alot of the children in her class were just as advanced as she is.The teacher is great at teaching how to make friends,they sing alot of different silly songs, and learn new skills everyday. She is great at keeping the parents and the children involved with all that they do. I have noticed one thing that is great about this school is the parent involvment. Like the other comment said it is a very friendly place. Me and my children look forward to next year.
