Tynes is a school with an dedicated group of teachers who are highly professional. They truly care for each student and their individual success. Parents are very supportive and we have a great PTA that does a tremendous job. Students don't just develop academically, but grow in all areas.

25 years ago I started 2nd grade at Tynes. My 7year old started Pre-K in the Neighborhood Kid Program in 2005. This program pairs up 'Normal' kids with Autistic and other special needs children in a preschool environment and is just one of the many outstanding programs that make this school exceptional. We had to be approved for an interdistrict transfer when the district was split to keep her in Tynes. Both my daughter and I are very proud to be Tynes Tigers and my two younger children can not wait until they get their chance! Although the school is going thru a much needed remodel and all the classes are in portables the staff is doing a phenominal job working together to make everything as easy as possible and keep us parents informed. We look forward to the future of this truely outstanding elementary school!

For the 2008-2009 school year, John O. Tynes elementary is undergoing a remodel, resulting in a higher than expected level of disorganization. As a parent, this is cause for concern of the schools ability to provide the educational needs of the attending children. This, coupled with the lower test score results in one or more areas for most grades across multiple tests for the 2007-2008 school year, is additional reason for parents to be cautious about the school. Parents should be extra diligent in monitoring and tutoring their Tynes children.
