My daughter has been going to Jenkins Creek since Kindergarten, she is now about to finish 1st grade. She loves her teachers and all of the office staff. Her teacher Mrs Mroos has great care for all her kids and gives each and every one of them individual attention. Even though the new curriculum is very time consuming. I am very happy with this school and my daughters progress while attending there.
My son just started kindergarden and he still cries every day. His teacher Mrs. Nelson has been wonderful, she is very sweet, encouraging, and pays a special amount of time on each student. Mrs. Nelson just left Jenkins creek and my son now has 2 new teachers and they are just as good as Mrs. Nelson was. My daughter went here last year and she loved it, the school helped her achieve many things she thought she could not do.
It's a good school. I would like to see teachers give a little more encouragement and attention to children from broken families, even though grades are excellent. More involvement in extracurricular activities, like plays, choir, etc.
JC is a great school with staff that do all they can to help the kids succeed. I have nothing to complain about!
Our child loved this school. It is in a great neghborhood.
The student to teacher ratio is too high. Over 25 kids to a teacher!
Some classes are staffed oddly. the class work seems to be at grade level but the parent involvement is not good at all.
Nice school great activities.
PTA programs are strong, but the staff lacks the ability or desire to help children to excel above their own grade level of instruction.
