I have two kids who go here and they learn so much! The teachers are great at what they do and I’m looking forward to the next few years here.

terrible school administration and staff. Bullying goes on at school even at the parent level. Teachers do not respect any special needs nor will accommodate your child.

We love Hull! We have 2 children who have been at Hull for 5 years now- the staff is very kind and supportive and the children have been making great progress in class. I like that the kids change teachers for some of their academic subjects so they can be taught at just the right level. The new principal, Mr Cagle, has brought a lot of positive energy to the school as well.

Our family loves Hull Elementary. Mr. Cagle coming along last year was exactly what the school needed. He brings such a light to the school. My girls looked forward to his Dad jokes every morning during quarantine. Seeing their smiles in the morning made our day. The teachers and front office staff are so caring. I love how the school encourages and rewards kindness. It made coming here as a transplant such a smooth transition for our kids. We’re so grateful for the teachers and all the staff at Hull Elementary.

Had issues with my daughters teacher not teaching properly during COVID online learning. Spent an average of 1.25 hours a day with the kids, among other issues. The teacher only made excuses! Reached out to the principal and asst principal and never heard back, I can only assume that the office supported the lack of teaching. Took my daughter out of the school. Then afterwards I learned that 30% of the parents took their children out for the 2020-2021 school year. The school is obviously doing something wrong!!

We LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Hull! We've been part of the Hull family now for several years and my 3 children (K, 1st, and 3rd grade) really enjoy the school and staff. Their academic progress has been amazing to see and what's most important for me has been the environment. We had our oldest in kindergarten at another Chandler school and it was a night and day difference from Hull when it came to environment. The teachers and staff know my kiddos by name, the kids and parents at this school are just friendly, down-to-earth people. I know my kids are getting the best education in a safe, loving environment and as a parent I couldn't ask for more. I've recommended this school to several of my friends and strongly encourage other parents who's kids do not enjoy going to school to check Hull out. My oldest went from crying about having to go to school every morning (when we were going to a different school) to looking forward to seeing his friends and telling me about what he learned that day. Overall, it's just a great school from every stand point.

For two years now my overall experiences and interactions with the school, staff and students has been Great. While any school has to work to continue to grow to meet the needs of the children, Hull seems to be really working hard to go the extra mile. During Covid we have met with struggles as would be expected. And our teacher from Last Year has even checked in to see how our student has been handling all the change. The new principle is super kind and very interactive with the kids. Ms. Raaf and Ms August have been amazing. As well as so many teachers we have classes with.

I would not recommend this school to anyone.

Our kids soared at Hull Elementary and the amazing teachers had everything to do with it! They were challenged, appreciated for their efforts, given extra support when needed and gained confidence in general throughout their 6 years. Could not have been happier about their elementary experience!

I love this school! I also love the teachers and that the principal is so 'hands on'. They have definitely made us feel very welcome and comfortable. I'm also very very happy that when they see a student excelling, it is noticed and they continue to challenge & further educate them!

Hull Elementary has been a spectacular school. Love our choice upon moving to Chandler! We have had several opportunities to move out of the boundaries but always stay because of this school.

For a school district, and entire state for that matter, known for disappointing schools, this one definitely earns 4 stars. Having been an educator myself, I would not go as far as giving it 5 stars, but I can see why some parents would! Generally, the school gives off a warm, community-centered feeling. Many families can walk to school, and can easily and eagerly attend special school functions. The school seems to do well with fund-raising while not making parents feel pressured to constantly give.Teachers smile at students and parents in the mornings and everyone generally feels happy to be there. Most importantly to me, my child feels happy and safe at school. His teacher seems very qualified and he is learning a good amount.My top two concerns: 1. the amount of junk food/treats they are passing out in the classrooms is tremendous and very behind-the-times 2. Way too many worksheets! There are many other ways to teach outside of constant worksheets.If this is your neighborhood school, you won't be disappointed.

I Love Hull!! Teachers are super awesome and encouraging towards the kids education. My daughter will graduate from this school as is the best I have found in AZ.

This is school is top notch. Our children attended up until 4th grade and then we had to move out of state. Fortunately our children were well ahead of the students in their new school due to the education they received at Hull Elementary. We moved to Ohio and they have a very good educational system so this says a lot!

I love Jane D Hull! They are very informative and keep everyone up to date. They are truly there for the kids. They have that family atmosphere and want families to become involved, not only with their kids but all that is beind done at the school. They are big on volunteering your time and are very helpful. There is alot to do with the kids and in the classrooms. They are always open to suggestions and seem to have a well-rounded group of people on the PTO. This is a very positive and encouraging campus. My oldest went through there and has made friends which he has kept now through middle school. My younger 2 are still there and have many, many friends and know that they can turn to their teachers for anything. I really like how they approach and teach "bullying". My kids are aware and have learned so much from that. They know the difference and will stand up with their friends. It just brings out the character in them. I have seen them mature and grow into well-versed kids. It's awesome!
