Positives include a very involved and active parent community, attention to music and arts, and the push for kids to do well on standardized tests. Negatives, which might be true of all elementary schooling is that the heavy attention to reading and math ignores other subjects like history and science. Many of the teachers are right out of college and we've had 3 principals in the last few years. I had a serious concern about the safety of my daughter on her bus and reported this to the principal. He was very kind and reassuring, but he has failed to follow up on his promises to fix the situation and act decisively. He is new and probably still trying to find his management style. Saying what people want to hear to all sides, avoiding a situation and hoping it will go away is perhaps not the best approach.
