Wonderful school with very caring staff. They have a great kindergarten curriculum that includes so many extras including computer classes.

We recently moved here and our child has had the most excellent experience at Dorr el. He has had the best teacher ever here and loves going to school. What a change from our last district! The teacher presented the curriculum at several different levels, so it challenged each student at an appropriate level. The hands on, sophisticated projects they completed were so surprising and refreshing. It was so "outside the box" compared with the average teaching.

Wonderful school with loving teachers and staff. My son has learned so much in the past 2 years attending Dorr. He is above his grade level in academics and loves going to school.

Excellent schools with programs for both accelerated children as well as those with learning disabilities. I have 3 children that have all attended Dorr Elementary and even though they are all 3 different, 2 of which are accelerated and 1 in which has a learning disabiltiy, all have thrived in this wonderful, caring environment. This is an environment where parents and teacher's work together for the good of the children.

Blue Ribbon School with excellent staff and low class sizes. Major renovations and classroom additions coming soon which will make it even better.

Poorly managed, will do anything for a buck in regards to funding, even if it means going against what is best for the child. Disregards special needs, advanced children, or economically troubled children and their issues they may have.

can hardly pass state requirements, it would be better for anychild to go to school anywhere else.
