All positive. I love Harley Harmon. My children have been attending this school for over 12 years and we have been very happy with the teachers, staff, administration, and the curriculum. Thank you Harmon teachers and staff for all you do.

My family's experience with this school has been excellent. The staff works really hard to give students the best learning experience they can. They reach out to the community. Students love their school.

The teachers work hard and really care about the students. Some teachers work late, others come in early, and some go in on the weekends. I really like this school and even though the test scores are not the greatest (due to a high population of ELL), I know that the teachers are doing their best. Thank you for teachers for putting students first!

My grandson has been going there since kindergarten. In third grade the teacher was so mean to him that he refused to let him go to the bathroom. He ended urinating his pants. This year his teacher does not seem to have a clue my grandchild has a learning disability. He gives him homework in languages art with uninteresting, useless information, and makes him read the same thing for five consecutive days. The teacher does not seem to understand he is obligated by law to meet students’ individual needs. Not the other way around. I have a doctorate in education, I retired after 25 years of teaching, I know exactly what I am saying.

My daughter transferred from Richard Bryan in Summerlin and the difference is huge. Parents and teachers are very disconnected, there is no communication or weekly review. The principal is lazy and has no concern for the security of his students. When kids come out, you won't see any teachers, volunteers, or the lazy principal directing traffic or helping kids cross the street. This is the total opposite of the previous school my daughter attended, her previous principal would always be outside helping the kids cross the street and teacher, as well as parents would rotate to help out. It is very clear that the money that goes into this school is not dutributed properly, and that the teachers are only concern about getting a paycheck.

After removing my child from what we thought was an accelerated learning program at Somerset Academy, it was hard to learn that my "above average" performer was pretty far behind the public school system. And that with a dual language immersion program??? Wish we would have moved him sooner. Everyone has been very friendly so far and my kid is back to being a normal happy child.

The 5th grade teachers here are very rude, and have no idea how to motivate children. My son has been insulted many times by his reading teacher and has been called slow, a bump on a log, lazy and not very smart by the man who is supposed to teach, motivate and inspire these children. Very dissapointed in the way my child has been treated by this teacher....!!!

This school is not even close to keeping up with the Jones'. It is more of a daycare without ammenities. Lack of structure and a very dissapointing dual language program that takes away from other learning opportunities.
