Southmoor Elementary is a wonderful school! The student population is diverse and high achieving. Parents, teachers and students work together to set high learning goals and the teachers work hard to help each child reach those goals. I have observed teachers who accomodate all the learning needs in their classroom. I must say the teachers at this school work long hours and attend many hours of training and it shows! Keep up the great work Southmoor.

Southmoor is a nice school with a lot of involved parents. My son attended 1st grade and did well. He has a processing delay and needs a little extra help. The special education team was very good although it seemed stretched. But the class sizes are way too big without any assistants. My son's class was supposed to have an assistant for an hour out of the day but I rarely saw her stay in the class (when I volunteered) as I think she was working in several classrooms. The two 30+ 1st grade classes were divided into a third class half way through the year which helped. But I worry about future years where the classes are around 30 students (and few assistants). For that reason we are moving into another school district. I also thought the communication for the administration could have been better. MORE ASSISTANTS ARE NEEDED!

This school is an excellent school and has great parent involvement but classroom size with one teacher is very bad. There are way too many students in a class. Having so may HG classes with few students they are failing the average student in classes of 30+. Also need to have more parent volunteers who come in each day to help those students who need extra time and help.
