All of my children have gone to this school and have had wonderful experiences. Not only did they excel in their educational standards, but also character traits. Teachers and staff have all shown they care about the students in every way.

This school is wonderful. I feel they allow their teachers to actually teach (I know, such a strange concept). Our son excelled there. He had wonderful, caring teachers. If you are so lucky to have Mr Dillion, Mr Croman or Mrs Bebinger, take it!

My child just finished Kindergarten and she enjoyed every minute! Looking forward to what 1st grade will bring. Caring teachers and staff as well as all the families.

At this point I have two kids that go to this school, I have been more than thrilled with how most things are handled. One of my kids is in a regular mainstream class while my other child is in Special Education. The special ed program and teachers are fantastic! Great communication and use of resources. The principal is supportive and involved and knows her students. I love the challenges my kids are faced with academically, they are so attainable without being too hard nor too easy. Friendly, academic atmosphere for kids to grow in.

My Special Needs son went here and I saw a huge difference in how he learned how to finally communicate with us, by speech and social interactions. I am so glad we picked this school for him. The staff was awesome and the programs they have really helped him. Also, the integration with regular classes really helped him. All the kids and staff really supported him in the " normal" classes! AWESOME SCHOOL!

James Dukes is an outstanding school. Specials needs children are intergrated with other on an ongoing basis. Parent involvement is at a high level. Testing scores are important as well as the delvelopment of each child.
