Excellent principal and teachers. Staff is always smiling and welcoming! The parking lot does get congested before and after school though.

My daughter started Kindergarten n Aug 2010. She started being bullied by a girl n her class2wks into the year.We took appropriate actions w/ talking2teacher & then moving2 the Principal. My daughter was poked w/staples, punched innose, hit 2x in side, kicked n stomach, almost slapped n face, pushed 2 ground, mud put downback & smooshed in &more. The Principal admitted our daughterdidnothing 2 deserve this& talked2 other kid's parents &admitted other girl's parents "needed2tak their rose colored glasses off". WE WERE FORCED 2 REMOVE OUR CHILD FROM SCHOOL 4 SAFETY REASONS. not fair that our little girl has to start a new school due to then negligence of the school taking appropriate actions to deal with this matter. We now have to pay over 500 per month for our daughter to go to a safe, private school. I would not recommend this school to anyone with young children. very dissapointed in the "zero tolerance" policy not being inforced

Donn B. Chenoweth is by far one of the best schools I've ever attended. The teachers are wonderful, all of the staff is very kind. they've created a one of a kind learning environment. The kids are not awarded for average performance, but for their achievements. They hold assemblies where some get responsibilty, caring, trustworthiness, honesty, respect, or citizenship. these categories are known as the six pillars.They also may get awards for accelerated reader, mathematical achievements, or for successfully learning english on top of their native language. I truly apprieciate what this school has done for all of the students, and I feel bad because they are extremely low on their budget and they've had to cut some field trips and other things they do annually for the students. But overall, they deserve two thumbs up!
