Teachers and staff are truly amazing, caring people at Adams Elementary. From the teachers, principal, secretaries, counselor, custodians, supervisors. They have the best PTSA which provides many school supplies for all students. They have helped support the classrooms with things like Chromebooks and assemblies, and put on events like the Fall Carnival, Spring Fun Run, Book Fairs, Fundraisers, Father-Daughter Dance. My daughter is in middle school and still talks about her elementary experience. My son is currently a 4th grader and is very involved. They have many programs during the school day for students to be involved in: ASB, Eagle Singers, Library Helpers, Peer Mediators, WOW workers, Green Team; and after school: Fit for Bloomsday, Cross Country, Smart Programs, 5the grade orchestra, STEM camps, Sky Hawks camps, Science programs. Students have so many opportunities to be successful not only ineed their education, but also as citizens in our community. Adams has a positive feel from the minute you walk through the doors. The student work and art line the hallways, parent volunteers are always in the building helping, custodians keep the inside and outside clean and the teachers are doing an amazing job of educating our future. I cannot say enough about this school.

Adams Elementary is a decent school and the principle is great. The only issue I've ever had is with a secretary. I've had multiple occasions where her attitude, demeanor, and tone are VERY RUDE, even for a few seconds! In my opinion, she'd be better off at a high school or not talking to any parents, but not at an elementary school. It's bad enough to where I wont keep my children in that school for another 5 years if I have to deal with her every time I walk into that school. I have an older child in middle school that used to go to Adams. We've never had an issue before, but my oldest has been out of Adams for a couple years, so maybe she's new.

I love this school. My daughter struggled at a different elementary school her entire kindergarten year. We came to Adams for her 1st grade year and I cant even begin to describe how amazing it has been. They immediately recognized that she needed extra help with reading. We are a christian family and my daughter is very open about her faith. Her teacher proudly displays her work even when it is full of bible verses and references about God. They also host a ton of events and my daughter has been able to make friends easily. I love what she is learning and always feel like I am included in the day to day happenings at her school. Her teacher is always calling to "check up" on her and see if i have any questions. Would highly recommend this school
