My son completed kindergarten at Idlewild and is now preparing to start first grade. I often refer to it as a hidden jewel. I am particularly pleased with the magnet program and the after-school program. The magnet program has exposed my child to things that I did not expect such as theatre, dance and different cultures. His reading and writing skills are on a third grade level. After-school has been a supreme blessing. This is not a baby sitting program. Your child focuses on his homework and is encouraged to not just do it, but to do it well. In addition Ms. Adderton helps the children to grow in terms of public performances, manners and doing what is right. Discipline is always at the fore front. It has not all been a day at the park, but I think that my family has grown so far with our time at Idlewild.

When we had to give up home-schooling we were blessed with Idlewild. They respected and supported our religious views and we have had great success with all three of our children's tranistion into public education. This will be thier 3rd year and we purposely stayed in the area to guarantee this school. We highly recommend Idlewild to everyone!

I have a student in his 2nd.year at Idlewild. The staff has been very helpful and extremely concerned about my child. He has grown in maturity as well as educationally since he came to this school. He is held accountable for his actions and is encouraged to be the best that he can be. I have enjoyed his time here and look forward to him completing the remainder of his elementary education at this school. I am very involved with the school and participate in outside activities held by the school. There are lots of ways for a family to be involved and they work very hard to include all members of the child's family. What a breath of fresh air in the school system with so many issues and concerns for students, staff and the community.
