My daughter LOVES this school. I am so glad that she can attend a school that has caring, wonderful teachers who always go out of their way to make their experiences the best they can be. My daughter's teachers have gone out of their way to challenge her. They are excellent! The principals and staff are also wonderful. Yes, the school could use some updating. Most could. But, I wouldn't trade the staff, teachers, and principals for a new building any day.

The school is old and the community and children deserve a new one. There is room for change in alot of areas.

I have two children in school at North Coffee Elementary. The teachers they had last year were great! They went above & beyond to help the students learn. The third grade teachers are really awesome. They planned tons of neat activities to hold the children's interest-my child loved it! The staff is very friendly & always helpful. They make you feel very welcome & at home!

My third child is now going through North Coffee. I have always been pleased with the friendly, yet proffesional staff and faculty. I would not have my children go anywhere else but North Coffee. My children, as well as myself, always feel comfortable at school. I am very pleased to see them progress as much as they have this year. Keep up the good work Mrs. Aaron and Mrs. Moore!
