Skippack El School

Lack of communication between parents and teachers!! If teacher says there is a problem....it shouldn't take them 4 months to address it! Saying the child is "having trouble focusing" is pretty vague!!! Shouldn't take 4 months of having a counselor involved to let parent know and schedule a meeting. This school needs to get in hire more aides for the classrooms if the teachers can't handle the overall monitoring of the classroom!

I have 2 children that have attended this school for the past 4 years and must say that the majority of teachers are wonderful. My son's third greade teacher leavrs much to be desired. My firstgrader's teacher is wonderful, young enthusiastic like Mary Poppins!!! my daugter will not miss class because she likes school so much. I think the school strived to meet the needs of its very large student body and any issues we have had have been delt eith quickly.

As I watch my children progress through the school system, I am satisfied with the quality teachers and education but would like to see the elementary schools go back to having 3 recesses a day instead of just one. Souderton Schools have 3 recesses. Also hope the district budgets to have large SMART boards installed in ALL classrooms.

We moved to Collegeville, PA in January of 2008. Our daughter was in 1st grade. Her transition to Skippack Elem. was great! And now she is going into 3rd grade and we are all very happy! It's a great school and they do fun things such as Entertainment Night that all the kids love to get involved with and every one looks forward to seeing! I couldn't have picked a better school! :)
