E P Todd Elementary School

My oldest daughter is in the 4th grade she has been going since the 5k !!! My baby girl is in 5k now!!! I love this school!!! The teachers are great!!! If u feel ur child need extra help in a subject they have a class could intervention. It gives them time during school hours to get extra help. They have a wonderful leader, Mr. Zachary!!! He can go against any principle and will win ur over!!! He knows all the kids names ,he is in and out of the class rooms . He even takes his time and write on a sticky note on 1st - 8 grade report card. To tell you how proud he is of a student accomplishment and what they need to improve in. It use to be 5k thur 6th but the district felt like he could handle 7&8 graders!!!!! He also has Missouri class 5k thur 5th grade !!! I hate we needed a extra room so we had to move out of the district. I am trying my best to keep my kids, because I will not find another school or principle like this !!!!

E P Todd is now an elementary/middle school serving K-8 and Montessori from 3K-5th now. I have been at EP Todd for... going on the 5th year now. I have a daughter who will be entering 8th grade and 2 (4&5) that will be in the Montessori program for kindergarten. The faculty and principal are wonderful! The principal makes a point to even learn all the children's names! E P Todd has such great standards for the children, they have just received the Palmetto Gold award again. This is a very culturally diverse school and has many extracurricular activities for the children. I am so very pleased to be in this district and be at this school. I won't move because of how wonderful this school is. Parents, teachers, vice principals, and the principal have a great relationship. I have not yet been to another school in the area that has as much parent/faculty interaction and I have been to 3 other schools around here with my oldest. I love this school and cannot praise it enough.

My child has had a very good year in kindergarten, and has learned so much. I can't say enough about how wonderful his teacher is. Teachers, principals, and counselors are all available at a call or email. Very responsive. Also, as the poster mentioned below, it is the only elementary school in town that is truly diverse, racially, culturally, and economically. I am looking forward to trying the Montessori choice program at Todd next year, it appears to be very successful.

E.P. Todd is a very good school with a wonderful principal and dedicated teachers. This is a school making a big comeback, the tests scores are rising and a culture of innovative learning is encouraged. Student academic achievements are celebrated with awards and recognition throughout the year. Students who need more help are identified and receive extra one-on-one tutoring. What I like best is the diversity of families: all economic levels, many races (not just black/white).
