Aldeane Comito Ries Elementary School

Fantastic teachers, staff that really motivate/ inspire children to learn. Great use of latest technology as well.

The administration is reactive and not proactive. The school is overcrowded and behavior problems are not dealt with effectively. Office staff is loud and more interested in themselves that anyone in the office.

Fantastic teachers that really inspire children to learn. Daughter just finished up third grade and had her nose in a book all year. Great use of technology as well.

So far, the teachers have been wonderful. I have three children at this school, and we have worked with 8 different teachers. Everyone of them has been wonderful. The office staff has been very friendly and willing to work with us on any issue. One of my sons is in pre-k Speech with Ms. Domingo, and she has been awesome. The principal is bi-lingual and also willing to work parents. I've noticed that the students at the school are very diverse in their ethnic backgrounds, which I like. Even the crossing guard is super friendly. I would give this school a 5 star rating, but there are a couple issues to be aware of. It is on a year round schedule now, which is not the school's fault so much as the school district. Most of the schools on the southwest side of the valley are year round, so just prepare for it. Like most schools on this side of town, there are just too many children and not enough schools to accommodate. It's because this is a nice area to live that is not overly expensive (at least right now). Still, my kids have been doing really well, so I can't complain too much.
