This is our second year at JHE and we love it. The staff and teachers are friendly and attentive, and despite the fact that the school is large (about 700 students in PK-5, which is actually on the small side for this area), the front-office staff already know my name as well as those of my kids. I love that there are plenty of volunteer opportunities here so I can be involved as much as I want with my children's education. We chose our house based on school reputation, and so far we feel we chose well!

I love this school and the most important thing is that my daughter loves it too! She is in 1st Grade. She has a very high level in reading only with 7 yrs old. We love the Hayes Elementary learning methods!

My son has completed K and 1st grade. So far, its been great. Very appropriate teachers for each grade - the school really took note of his personaility. I will probably have him tested for the Gifted and Talented program in 2nd grade as I did feel he was not stretched by the end of 1st grade. Couldn't have asked for a better introduction to the US school system (we're English).

Very good in all respects. Most noteworth is the quality of attention that your kid gets.

Last year was my first experience at Hayes Elem. and I am proud to say the faculty are the utmost professional and displayed exceptional teaching skills in all areas I was subjected to. My son was diagnosed w/dyslexia and hard as that was, he was treated with dignity, and provided skilled state of the art educational assistance. My husband and I are thankful for our children's opportunity and progress at Hayes Elem.

Last year was my son's first year at Hayes. As a well-traveled, seasoned mother of four, I can attest to the integrity and sincerety of the school principal, Dr.Robertson and the staff. The teachers there are TERRIFIC! Simply put..the best!

Having 4 children in this school, I couldn't be happier with the results. They have all been treated as individuals with all of their needs met. I have absolutely no complaints about anything. The staff is just exceptional.
