I have had a lovely experience as a parent at this school- for the last 7 years. Highly reccomend.

We are very fortunate to live within this school's boundary. The teachers are wonderful, and the students display kindness and respect for one another. Our kids absolutely love Silverwood, and as parents, we appreciate the inclusive and welcoming community feel that the school fosters. It's one of the few schools in the area where ALL school fundraisers are built around and include the kids (and their families) - a small detail, but something that I think speaks volumes for the culture (and something our family really appreciates). Academically, Silverwood has done a great job implementing common core. Our kids both enjoy and understand the relatively new learning style, and I'm impressed by the critical thinking approaches taught in the classrooms. The teachers we've had so far have been fantastic and we're very grateful for our SkyHawks experience so far!

Great. Miss Kim was a great contact to have.

My son was so unlucky to be assigned to a very indifferent and insecure 5th grade teacher.For example, my son was trying to spend his time wisely by completing his homework during his freetime at school and he got reprimanded by this teacher for doing so. The same character applies to the previous principal who chose to separate herself and not think "creatively" to the specific needs of my son. I feel bad for the parents whose kids go to this school because they are stuck in an attitude of mediocrity as exhibited by higher grade teachers. Hopefully, the new principal would innovate and not just distribute "feel-good" awards to the students.
