Re: 'The school is dirty and rundown.' This is a school full of wonderful teachers and committed staff. Certainly it does not have the resources for upkeep that a wealthy school like Stanley British has. However, it is a school for learning, from whatever a student's socio-economic class or background.

This school is a GEM! I've been working with students, teachers, and administration to make the school more environmentally friendly and I could not have been more impressed. Ellis is a very diverse school with an extremely dedicated and cheerful staff. The school appeared very organized and the students were very well-behaved.

I am the parent of a kindergartener at Ellis school. I have found that my child has learned well so far. They load the kids with homework every week and have them write a story every day. I am concerned about wether or not my child is recieving the one on one attention he needs. I am also concerned about the low amount of hands on learning they do. The activities are more geared toward the 'sit down and shut up' philosophy. Also, I have found the school to be unorganized, as they just got a new principal. I've tried to contact him and left messages with the office. Nobody has returned my calls and I feel that this school is not the best place to send my child if I want to foster a life-long love of learning.
