Well, I used to be a student here and I had a very great time the teachers were respectful and helpt students get ready for middle, and high school. My sister is 9 and she attends there. Every day when she comes home she always talks about what she learned, how the teachers were kind to her, and what they help with.

I am a substitute teacher who has been working at Haddon Ave. Elementary School this school year. I was compelled to write this review because I am so impressed with the staff , students, and principal Mr. Ramos. This is a great school to work at. Mr. Ramos is a hands -on principal who truly cares about a high quality education . He knows many many students by name. You can always find him out on the yard interacting with everyone. I watched him actually take the end of a jump rope , and stand outside during P.E. time, turning the rope for at least 20 minutes with the students. They all love him. Haddon Ave. School has a very positive climate. I love going there ! I found out that Mr. Ramos is a new principal at Haddon. I don't know what things were like before he came, since this is my first year at Haddon, but I do know that under his leadership the children are flourishing. The teachers are excellent , and I wouldn't hesitate recommending Haddon Ave. Elementary to anyone !

Haddon has made positive changes. Their CST score is now 788! They Have a new valet drop off program for students in the morning. Teachers are passionate about teaching and the making the community and school a better place to live and learn. The new permanent principal is actively working with parents and the community to make the school better. The Office staff is very attentive to parents questions and needs. Haddon also has many community agencies collaborating with the children and families to make the school more succesful especially in the areas of safety and helping the children become more aware of college and the hope that they can attend a university.

Was doing great when school went up 44 points...then teachers that were used to doing what they wanted and were not accountable put a plan in place and got principal ousted...too bad for the Haddon children they have the worst leader now, seems young with zero professionalism or knowledge. She was sent away from Lankershim ES and Oxnard ES. She is rude, does not know instruction, plays school doesn't lead the school, and has made very poor administrative decisions since coming in. Lots of great employees have left that saw her style. Too bad for this community seems its true, Pacoima seems to get all the , why do they keep recycling trash that's no good. Time to give these kids what they deserve

the teachers were great when i was attending now my youngest sister is in 5th grade and her teahers seem really cold hearted, her fourth grade teacher wouldnt share her tissues because they were "hers". her kindergarden teachers stare was painful, the people in the office have been there and have no respect for students on one occasion one of the ladys was on an inappropiate website while a student was there waiting to get picked up to go home. on the phone theyre really rude the new principle is worried about what theyre eating outside of school instead of watching whats coming out of the school cafeteria, peanut butter and jelly isnt a meal
