Excellent school I know a lot of the staff personally and have kept up to date with the school itself ever since I attended 15 years ago. This school offers so many extra activities and programs for the students, rewards hardwork and feeds into an excellent middle and high school. I couldn't be more Happy with my experience there. My children will certainly be attending this school.

Boyd is a great elementary school. It has the International Baccalaureate (IB) Programme, so the kids learn everything that every other school with this program around the world are learning. The school offers Spanish from K-5. The school culture is open and friendly. There is a lot of cultural diversity in the student body. Overall, my kids have gotten a solid education. I like that there is not a lot of peer pressure to look a certain way, and wear certain brands like there is in other schools in the area. Boyd is a safe place for kids to grow and achieve.

Boyd Elementary is an incredible school that always seems to go the extra mile in academia and demonstrating love to our children. My son was in kinergarten and received instruction in Spanish and computer technology. The also planted a garden in the Spring. (The only recommendation I have was that I wished the Spanish instruction was more conversational than vocabulary words.) There are not enough words to describe how truly incredible his kindergarten teacher and principal are!!! Many schools may use the excuse of having an old building, but this did not hinder the caliber of education and the level of captivating enthusiasm of the teachers in the slightest! I am so impressed!! If only more schools could be like Boyd Elementary!!
