My family feels that the keyport central school is not a safe environment for our children, there have been many incidences of violence and bullying. Many of the children in the school have no respect for themselves or any one else and I feel the school has there heads in the sand about how to deal with the issues. There are alot of politics going on between the the teachers and the school board. There is a lack of supervision during recess, lunch as well as when the children enter and leave school. Everytime you turn around the school is implementing a new program instead of consentrating on the basics, this is due in part because of the state funding that goes on. I was more concerned with my childrens well being rather than with their education. My children are very bright and they are the ones being left behind.

Central School is lacking in good, solid leadership. The principal and VP are new and inexperienced. The main focus of the curriculum revolves around the test scores. Much attention is placed on those students who are in need of extra help, however lost in the mix are those students who perform on the advanced proficient level when testing.

Central School is not a bad school, please do not confuse it with the high school. My 2 children have had nothing but great experiences there, learning everything from their basic skills to sign language. I couldn't be happier with it.

My daughter and son have attended Keyport Central school for 2 years now and they are doing well. I think the teachers are good and the office staff is very helpful. The school could use a bit of updating. WE are moving this year and my children are a bit upset. This is a good school, I havent had a problem with any of the teachers, nor has my children.
