Review Ariel Elementary Community Academy

- Reviewed by a Parent/Guardian on April 14, 2008 (Rating: 5 / 5) Report As Inappropriate
- I have been parent of Ariel students since my child was in 3rd grade. I have watched as various programs have changed and some have been dissolved. I enjoy the fact that the staff is watchful, caring, and concerned about the children. An added plus is that there is a guidance counselor available for the children to assist 8th graders in locating good high schools. There is even stock that is set up in the children's name upon graduation via the investments and entrepreneurship program at Ariel. All and all it is a great school! They have a little work to do but for the most part very good
