I've had 2 children go through Orchard, and I couldn't be more pleased with the income. The Admins, Teachers and Paraeducators are all amazing.

It has been a rough journey my child had some behaviour problems but Orchard has helped her overcome them! She is having her most successful year !!!

The staff doesn't keep building secure, I personally watched folks walk into a back door, on multiple occasions, during school hours when all doors should be locked to ensure our children's safety. Staff is very disrespectful. This school doesn't spend funding properly to accommodate children.

Best school in Richland. Participation by parents make it more effective learning in classrooms.

We(My 4 kids and my hubby and I) were at Badger Mountain, then White Bluffs and now at Orchard Elementary. Every time we worried that the next school surely couldn't top our last experience, but far and away Orchard is the best school experience my children have had, as well as we as parents. It truly feels like a small community working as one! We absolutely love it!
