Literally got punched in the face here and then I got suspended because the boy that punched me parents pay the school to keep him in at all times.

My grandson has had only positive experiences since he moved here from New York. I am happy that we chose Polton Elementary.

I have a 1st grader and a 3rd grader who attend Polton Elementary. The one who is in 3rd grade has been diagnosed with Aspergers recently and the teachers and advisors at the school have been really incredible and patient and helping my son adjust and finding ways to help him learn. I know my boys are well taken care of and are benefiting from attending school here

I have been impressed by the community spirit of this school. Along with having many teachers who have been teaching here a long time, we have a very active PTO group. When you talk to some of the teachers and leaders they say how they have worked for other school around the area and those chose to come back to Polton.

I was a student at Polton 1st grade through 5th grade now going into 7th grade. The students there are awesome. Not many rumors went around and if there was everybody there was smart enough to not believe them and not pass it on. The teachers there are either air-heads or very helpful. My 1st and 3rd grade teacher didn't teach very well. I brought home my homework asking for help and not even my mom could understand it, we left a comment saying we couldn't understand it but the teacher didn't help me, she just put "Great Job" on my paper. The staff (front office) said we didn't live in the place we lived in even when we came in with proof we did, they still didn't believe us. It took 2 years for us to convince them. The front office people can be very rude sometimes. Mrs. McMullen (4th grade teacher) is the best teacher you could ever have. She's very helpful and amazing. She returns emails very fast and makes sure every thing in her students lives are going well and if their not she helps as much as she can. I would recommend this school for anybody.
