My 2 Granddaughters transferred to Jayhawk Elementary late this year, needless to say it was a little scary for them. I must say the staff from the office to teachers at Jayhawk Elementary have gone above and beyond expectations making them feel welcomed. My only regret is that we didn't transfer earlier in the year. We do look forward to a great year next year! This is a great school with one of the best staff that I've ever met.

After 5 months of requesting additional help and testing for my son he was finally evaluated for additional help. This is only after receiving numerous emails and phone calls from me and finally a letter from his medical institution stating the importance of the testing. At that point it was too late and he ended the year with very low marks in all subjects. We have since changed schools where he was evaluated and discovered to be 2 years behind in math and reading. He is receiving the extra help he needs and is currently carrying above average marks in all subjects and staying with his peers. I would ask parents to consider the level of education their children would receive here before enrollment and how prepared they would really be for college.

My 2 kids have gone to Jayhawk Elementary for the last 4 years. The staff is amazing! The entire staff knows every child by name. The small town atmosphere is a fantastic learning environment. I highly recomend this school to anyone who is thinking about moving to the area! Go Jayhawks!!
