Virtual ( Online Class) are terrible, specially for a 3rd grader.. to many access codes, passwords.. links to go to..And when finally your kid got in ... a Teacher with a moronic attitude turns your kids willingness to learn into tears..No way I can accept this kind of treatment to my son..A teacher should encourage learning and grow.. Exploration further away than the classroom or screen..Not suppress our kids creativity and imagination .. specially in Arts class.I don’t speak English very good.. I don’t write even, but I do understand very well.. the cruelty and sarcasm in your tone of voice..Please don’t forget my name..Dionisio Derteano.

I cannot say enough amazing things about Polo Ridge. I feel so secure sending my babies there for most of their awake hours and I know they are loved and cared for just like how I do! It is a school will a true community feel, among students, staff, and parents. Lots of colors fill the school and each teacher takes care to have their classrooms meet their children's need. I had no idea what flexible seating or growth mindset was until my second grader taught them to me! Last year my youngest had a first year teacher, but you never would have known - she went into first grade HATING reading after a summer of me forcing it and ended the school year absolutely obsessed with books. She worked magic on my daughter! Her second grade teacher continues to encourage her now! My oldest two have flourished over the years and we will be sad to see one graduate Polo Ridge this spring. Keep doing what you do, Polo Ridge faculty...we appreciate you!

We have been very impressed with ALL the faculty and staff at Polo Ridge. The teachers are focused on helping the students grown & flourish. You can tell they take pride in their contribution to your child's education in and out of the classroom. The administration is also very focused and involved with the inner workings of each aspect. There is a large and strong network of parents who are focused on making the school experience a great one for the children. We feel very fortunate to have our son go to this great school!!!!

Wonderful school community. It is a large elementary school, but you truly don’t notice the size with the tight community feel. The teachers work very hard to meet each child where they are whether it is challenging them or working one on one or in small group to help a struggling student succeed.
