Stanton Edwin M School

Great! The principal and staff are friendly and accessible. The school keeps the parents informed about what's going on at school and welcomes parents to participate. The parents are actively involved.

Principal she's horrible and doesn't know to to deal with problems. If one child messed up all the children even the well behaved smart one gets punished. She screams a lot also and her ways of doing things doesn't work.

My daughter graduated from Stanton last year and was accepted into four special admit high schools. She selected CAPA, which is one of the best art-focused high schools in Philadelphia. Stanton did a fabulous job preparing her for high school and college. That's why our two younger children are there now! We love the E.M. Stanton community.

Our son just finished 1st grade at Stanton and had a fantastic experience. The staff is great and the school is small enough that each teacher knows every kid. It has a great community of parents and neighbors who volunteer in the school as well as raise funds for extra curricular programs including cultural arts instruction. The principal is fantastic and she has always made herself available to parents.
