I am very pleased so far with the teachers, staff, programs, and facilities at Kinnaman Elementary. I plan on having my daughter continue her schooling here, as well as have her 2 younger siblings attend when it’s their time.

I have two kids; one that has already been through Kinnaman and one that is going into 4th grade there. The school has been so great for my kids and even myself, as I volunteer there often. The only reason I could not give a full 5 stars for all of the sections was that the school is unfortunately unable to provide additional direction/teaching for kids identified as TAG. I definitely understand that this is simply a funding issue; being a Title I school, they need to focus the bulk of the money to make sure that kids living at or below the property line are given a chance. All that aside, every teacher my kids have had has been great about communication and providing answers and input when there are questions. The admin staff goes out of their way to be supportive and guide you when necessary.

Excellent. Kindergarten teachers are warm loving, and recognize when a child is preforming above or below where they should be and spend extra time with them. Mrs. Reynaud has been great at assigning advanced work for our son, and providing him with more challenging assignments.

Great School with awesome staff that helps children be safe, responsible and respectful, in addition to their various innovative & inspiring methods to help kids excel in their academics too. We are very glad that our son got Mrs. Hall as his 1st grade teacher. She is a great value add to Kinnaman Elementary school. Appreciate the sincere efforts of all the staff that makes magic in all those children's lives. Kudos Kinnaman Coyotes.

At first my son just wasnt adjusting to a new school very well and I felt bad but its either he goes to school or I got to jail for not sending him , but as time passed he slowly but surely started to enjoy school at kinnaman the officr staff are just wonderful they went out of there way to pay for my sons glasses when they could have just as easily ignored the fact that we needed help and not onky that they are passionaye about helping these kids . I have only the highest respect for all staff at Kinnaman elementary .Thank you all so very much especially Mrs Edens: ) and as for the lady who swam here from a island I think your probably missing a few screws in that head or your brain frll out in ocean as you swam here cuz ur they only reject as far as I can tell.

Our experience here has so far been good. Our son is in kindergarten and had a bit of a behavior problem early on. The teachers worked with us at home to get him on track and he is now doing wonderfully. I am appalled at the previous reviewer's nerve saying "the kids here are not smart". Perhaps this parent meant to say that he or she thinks the kids are not as well educated here, but I have to disagree with this as well. Kinnaman offers smaller class sizes than most of the other schools in the district and has good teachers and a commitment to the students. I recommend this school.
