Birkes Elementary School

Disappointment that during recess the kids are running around outside sharing playground equipment; some wearing masks some not wearing mask. In addition, it's very concerning that his progress reports only reveal if he is having any difficulties and does not reveal what he has learned or has excelled in. The teachers that I met last year 2019-2020 are very unfriendly and very unapproachable. I do not believe they can effectively handling bullying.

So far, very disappointing. My son attends and his first nine week progress report only reveal his difficulties and zero on what he has learned in the pass nine weeks.

Very satisfied with the school. Perfect communications and highly qualified teachers

I'm not pleased with this school at all. Every year the curriculum barely changes. The homework is exactly the same year after year. The spelling words are at least two grade levels too easy. Almost every letter or email we receive is full of grammatical errors. The teacher we had for fourth grade writing had very low standards and could not (or would not) correct simple errors. Math is at least a grade level behind where it should be. Going into 5th grade our child is still counting on fingers. If your standards are higher than the state test, this school will not cut it for you.
