As a parent at this school I am very happy with all the teachers and interactions.

This school has had some trouble in the past, but has recently hired several teachers from outside the state to take Daniel Elementary to the next level and it's working.Just in one year, SBA scores for 6th grade have nearly doubled for the same students taking the test in fifth grade.Don't count Daniel Elementary out because the staff is working hard to build a positive and safe community focused on high morality. Love it :)

Never go to this school! In Fifth grade it was the worst year! Now I'm going to Sixth grade in a new school. Teachers are not good! Their going to get your kids in trouble for no reason! Subs are the worst! This is my experience at Daniel

My husband and I both volunteer at this school on a regular basis. The more we are there, the more we dislike the school atmosphere. The way the staff talk and interact with the kids is borderline inappropiate and degrading. They care more about writing a kid up for bad behavior then taking the time to find out what is causing the behavior in the first place. There is not enough supervision at recess, my husband volunteered and was the only adult on the playground. The school forgot to send anyone out to supervise the first graders!!! I was there a couple weeks ago during lunch and one of the lunch supervisors started yelling at the kids to be quiet with a red face like a drill sargent and this was the military. The kids were not even being loud just normal talking volume. Then she made them all put their foreheads on the table and sit quietly, next thing you know she was telling them to clean up and throw their lunches in the garbage so they didn't even get to finish eating. She wasted all of their lunch time by being a drill sargent and then had the gall to repremind them for being bad??? Can't wait to get my child out of this school and wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

I am a former employee of the Kent school District, having worked at Daniel Elementary, I know that the leadership , and staff are committed to excellence. Next year my daughter will be in kindergarten and i will submit a request for her to go to Daniel as we are in a different school's boundaries. I know the principal and staff well, and I have confidence in their abilities and dedication to student success.
