Dr. Andy Vollmuth is a dynamic leader. Normandale Hills Elementary School is a great place to learn.

Incredible community of globally-minded, locally-acting families. Engaged and caring teachers. Innovative teaching strategies and classroom environments. Well behaved, inclusive, intelligent and creative students. Nice intimate group within the context of progressive and high-performing Edina schools. Diverse teachers from many backgrounds due to French Immersion program. Opportunity to host or partner with classroom interns from French speaking countries giving families first hand experience of another culture. All around amazing place for a child to thrive.

Great program and great staff. Teachers are always going the extra mile. They are so energetic, and many are so experienced. Their support system for students who are struggling is outstanding from the classroom teachers who to the learning specialists to administration. We felt very well supported and very informed.

Great program for the right "rule-following" child. No talking in the halls, for example whispering, perhaps). Very strict and regimented. Many high energy kids- mostly boys -are stunted and suffering as there is no outlet for their energy. Not the right fit for many students. Teachers run the ship and expect parents to shoulder much of their administrative work. Also, they cannot seem to find a long- term principal.

We feel so fortunate to have this excellent program available to our children. They are learning fluent french while still mastering English, math, music, etc. They also enjoy their school day and seem invigorated when I pick them up each day. Parental involvement at this school is huge and the teachers are fantastic.

Great school and a wonderful opportunity for my daughter to learn French fluently. Even immersed in French the students still excell in English and Math.
