I am shocked to see negative reviews of Alderman Elementary. We love this school--the teachers, staff, principal, and community. It is small enough for our son to feel known but big enough for him to feel stretched academically and socially. The teachers seem to love working there and are devoted to making students' experience great, even during a pandemic. The principal is communicative and helpful. I am an educator myself and am highly skeptical of the test-based number rating system on this site (I came here because of a conversation with a friend on this topic), and I hope that anyone considering sending their kids to Alderman will look further than this website to make their decision.

If I could rate it a zero I would.

They allow parents to approach your children with threats in the hallway! The principal when going to him with a problem looks at you with a blank look and doesn't have much to say! Almost like he's confused and don't know what to do!

i have two kids at this school. i love the way the teachers relate to you, the parent. my son is in second grade and my daughter is in kindergarten. i love both teachers. they listen to your concerns and work with you. we went out of the country to visit and both teachers made provisions so my children will not miss out in class. keep up the good work
