I am a grandparent and I love the awards and recognition that the student are honored with. They really make them feel special.
Both of my kids attend this school and I think it is wonderful. There are so many activities for the kids to participate in and the teachers are really involved with the students. I have not had any problems communicating with teacher is very important to me. Only bad thing I can say is that there are no sport activities for the lower grades. I'm sure there is a reason behind that though.
I have two children currently attending Herndon-Barstow. I have been extremely impressed with the school. The principal and teachers are devoted, caring, and hard working they are always seeking innovative solutions to problems. From parenting classes and tutoring fairs to peer mediation they work to address every child's needs. I have been pleased that my children also receive music and art instruction. The use of leveling in certain subjects or dividing students based on need (intervention for struggling students, grade level, and challenge group for above grade level) means students receive instruction best suited to their needs. I have been very pleased with the interesting and creative assignments my son receives in his challenge group math and language arts classes. Both of my children love school Herndon-Barstow is a school that thinks outside the box. It is a real gem!
I am a parent of a third grader currently attending Herndon-Barstow. I am an active volunteer and part time aide. I absolutely love the school, it's principal, and the staff. Everyone there shows a genuine care for the children. Not just work wise, but personally, they care about each child as if they were their own. I cannot say enough good about the principal and vice principal. These two women have a complete open door policy and have never made me feel like what I feel or what I ask is silly or unimportant. Mrs. Buriss and Mrs. Moynihan make a great team! I will truly be sad when my son leaves there. Check us out we are a school to watch out for.
