Awesome school, fantastic cirriculum, very caring and courteous staff and counselor!!! We love this school!
I have a son finishing up 3rd grade, and we love the school. We were unhappy with the 'combo classes' in the 07-08 school year, but that has thankfully gone away. The parents are very involved, the PTA provides a lot of extras to the schools, and we have been very pleased with all of the teachers. The only downside is the I do find the administrators, (well, only one really) unapproachable and defensive. But I still stand by my excellent rating!
My child has thrived since leaving Clermont. I only have respect for a couple of teachers and staff.
Clermont has manythings going for it, but class sizes have become unwieldy in recent years. Parents' frustration ran high in the 2007-8 schoolyear about the large number of combined-age classrooms. In the 2008-9 school year, there are no combo classes, but several classes are too large for teachers to manage. The principal is extremely ambitious and has succeeded in bringing new programs to the school, but her weak communication skills have driven a wedge between her and the parents. The 'local' GT program is a joke and was oversold to parents. The PTA at this school is powerful and relentlessly demanding. My child has had inexperienced teachers during all four years at Clermont.
