"My kids are finishing their 1st year at Selby (2nd/K). Their teachers really care about them. I feel fortunate. I don't have anything to compare to, as this is my only experience with public schools, but right now, I am happy where they're at. They've made new friends, and I'm making friends with their friends' parents (getting together outside of school events). That counts for something."

"We are new to Selby Lane this year and we love it. The teachers are very involved with the students and the office staff is friendly and helpful. The principal and vice principal go above and beyond in showing their students respect, and being there for them but they also run a tight ship. The students know they can't push the bounderies without consequences to follow. It's a very balanced campus. My daughter was having difficulties in academics/social skills at the other school we were at but she has just soared at Selby and I have a hard time getting her to leave her classroom and teacher now! I feel Selby Lane has many extra curricular activites to choose from. They have an organized after school program, music lessons, sports programs, Art in Action in the classrooms etc.. I can't speak highly enough about Selby Lane!"

"We moved to this school from another school in the district, a more affluent school I might add. This school is a breath of fresh air. As a former educator myself, 10 years in the public school system, I see just about everything one would expect from a successful school. The admin/teachers are excellent. The Principal is caring but firm, and really seem to know her students. The VP is very high energy and really keeps the Middle School aged kids in focus. The PTA has gone through a big transition this year and more parents are being encouraged to get involved. I don't know what the reviewers here refer to as lack of extra curricular activities, but there is an after school program that is run with the Parks and Rec Dept. We have field trips, Art in Action, etc. We are very pleased with this school."

"My son transfered to this school few months before end of last school year. He enjoyed being in Mr. Wilkins class and Ms. Quon with GATE program, my son learned a lot from them and they are excellent teachers. We are very fortunate to have them. The principal, vice principal and ladies in the office are wonderful and supportive."

"From observation, the principal does not interact with the student except in a disciplinary capacity. The teacher quality is good, however, turnover of staff seems to be a problem. There are limited extracurricular activities and parent involvement is extremely minimal. Safety is an issue due to frequent discipline problems that do not seem to be controlled."
