This is a great school with very, caring teachers and principal! To the parent that gave this school a low rating--- unfortunately your child didn't have the best teacher. Most of the teachers are extraordinary and you shouldn't give this school a low rating based on one teacher.

The only reason i did not give this school 5 stars is that no school is perfect. I have nothing but good things to say about this school. The staff's care and concern for our children is obvious. I have a daughter in the 4th grade and one in the 3rd grade. Any problems that your children may have are dealth with professionally and with kindness. Great Job Principal Montgomery and Staff!!!!!!!!

This school is excellent. My daughter talks constantly about her time with her Talented and Gifted teacher at this school, even though she's already moved in Junior High.

Our child attended Reinhardt beginning in Kinder and continuing on until sixth grade. We were more than pleased by the education she received. The education she received allowed her to aquire the skills needed to apply and be accepted into a Talented and Gifted Academy. The principal is one of the most 'hands on' administrators I have ever met. She truly has the best interests of all the children at heart and will battle for them like a mother cub. The teachers also above average in their desire to see that each child gets the instruction they need to succeed. The parental involvement is sporadic due to language barries but overall, the parents care and step up when the need is there. More bilingual capabilities would enhance the parental involvement.

The staff at Reinhardt have been great. I have a son with a disability who is thriving at the school.
