This school is right in between middle class families, and low income families. The staff there is ok to say the best. The best thing about the school is the principle, She is attentive, knows all of the students names as well as the parents. But there are some TERRIBLE teachers that just need to be FIRED!!!! A kindergarten teacher , who expects the 5 year olds to have 100% self control and SCREAMS at them when they don't! They are small children who, for many, kindergarten is there first year! When parents try to talk to her, she dismisses them, or talks down to them as if they were children!! She claims to want parent involvement, but it's only with the parents who look the other way while she treats these poor students like dirt. She will throw students personal belonging away if she doesn't like them, and has gone as far as throwing students lunches always and flat out denying a student his home made lunch!! She is just a TERRIBLE TERRIBLE teacher. Another one is the transitional kindergarten teacher. Beware. She will gossip about your student to other parents and argue with parents in front of other students.

I am a student at ayer and I have been since kindergarten and I love this school! I am now in sixth grade class of 2019. I have been in the gate class since second grade.The staff cares about you a lot and they really enforse no bullying. The only not so good things about the school is that they care more about testing than over all grades and the food but the food problem is the districts fault. Otherwise I love this school. I plan to enjoy my last year at ayer!

This is an awesome school. The teachers are read to teach the students and most important of all THEY CARE! My son attended Ayer 2 years and both teachers were just amazing, they communicated with me daily and were always nice and friendly. Mrs. Boone was an excellent 1st grade teacher for my son she really cares and puts much effort into teaching her class. Mrs. Johnston was an amazing kingergarten teacher for my son, he learned very much and she really worked hard with all the kids. The principal and vice principal do not tolerate bullying at all, it's nice to know my child felt protected and safe while at Ayer. Their after school program focuses on the childrens enrichment and they really help with homework. I totally recommend this school, too bad we had to move and leave Ayer.

The principal really cares about the students. She actually takes the time to get to know the students. She even does cross guard duty. The new Vice principal has also done a great job. My daughter was in cross country and I noticed that the principal never missed a meet. Ayer also has excellent teachers. My daughter was struggling in first grade and Mrs. Boone immediately notified us and sought out help for her. She was put in tutoring and now she is doing awesome. We are going to miss this great school. We r moving to Sacramento and unfortunately we longer be part of the Ayer Bear family

I'm very happy with the activities at Ayer... It's a nice place to families to feel involved with the school without feeling pressured.
