(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - The teacher that my son has in this elementary school is excellent, she has the most effective communication with both the student and parent then I've ever experienced in a district. Not only that... she teaches with humor and through that humor she's gained the love and respect of many students. These children are so fortunate to have such a thoughtful, thorough and sound individual that induces happiness into the lives of kids which makes them desire to learn each day. Which is how school should really be.... learning can be fun - especially at this particular school. When your child comes home at the end of the day and praises his teacher... that's what really matters! Thank you Ms B... you made a difference in my child's life!

- This elementary school has an outstanding staff that takes an immediate interest in the wellbeing of your child - on both the academic and emotional safety levels. I had moved to this area from a Triple A rated Brentwood School district and to my surprise I found that Central Elementary has a more effective approach of addressing special needs of certain children. It is such a relief for a parent when their child is struggling on an emotional level and the staff takes an immediate interest and sets forth an effective plan together for your child that creates such a positive change in your child that you can notice the difference within just a few days. It is also nice to know that your children are being taught that "bullying" is wrong and will not be accepted by any means. The 5th Grade principal Ms Johnson really listens and takes in the detail of what your child really needs - which is something that you don't always find in alot of schools and it really makes a difference in personal happiness for your child. I am so pleased that I've made the choice to move to this school district... My child was really suffering at his other school and after experiencing the care and understanding of this school staff it gave me faith that I can go to work and know that my child is being treated as an individual and not just another number in the school. Thank you for all you've done for my son.
