Ashlawn Elementary School

Our two children have been out of Ashlawn in over 12 years. There was principal turnover but the principals and staff were great. At that time it was the little school that could. Despite growth challenges, I recommend being involved and volunteering. It is the way to know what is happening and how to fix issues. That is why I had a good repour with the teachers, principals and staff. The PTA is strong. I recommend encourage participation. If you are not involved one is part of the problem and not the solution. Make it great because the time will go by fast.

As a parent of a current student, we have been pleasantly surprised with the Ashlawn approach to education. Students are treated as individuals and the schooling structure supports the creation of a strong and supportive learning environment.

There are many things that could improve. They way they treat their students with disabilities. Many of them just spend the day in the office and not in the classroom with their peers. Teachers just send kids to the office instead of taking the time to figure out what is going on.

Ashlawn jas been a great experience for my kids. My daughter just started middle school and misses Ashlawn immensely. My son who jas high functioning autism is thriving at Ashlawn. The leadership and staff are extremely flexible and the environment is great. Students are kind to my son and work hard to include him.
