The teaching staff is great but the principal and office staff leave much to be desired. The principal is rude and condescending and the office staff were not able to answer basic questions at registration.

I am totally impressed with the administration, teachers, and staff at AES. I encourage all parents to become involved in PTA and their child's classroom as a volunteer. By being an involved parent, I can honestly say I would not want my children to attend another school, anywhere. The principal has helped to make some much needed improvements with the school, despite overcrowding. She has been dedicated to upgrading technology and we now have a much needed computer lab. Now, she is helping us to get a brand new playground for our kids to enjoy. I can say without hesitation that our principal is dedicated to building the whole child. Many times when I drive by the school,I see her car there on weekends, late evenings, and when school is not in session. Any time I have wanted to speak to her regarding my children she is available. Love AES!

Arlington Elementary is an absolutely wonderful school. My son has been there since Kindergarten. He is in the 2nd and I only have positive things to say. All of his teachers have been WONDERFUL!! They teach with LOVE! I really feel everyone goes out of their way to make the kids feel special. Academically he is just thriving. We are a mililtary family recently retired and I can tell you out of all the places we've lived the school system in Arlington is Fantastic!

The teachers are all excellent and really care about their kids. The parental involvement is amazing as well. The teachers and parents work together great, and that's what makes AES so special.

I can't tell you how that makes me feel and to have easy mornings , no fussing around he's ready to go school! We love Arlington Elementary School!!!
