Only a Stellar Experience at Memorial Elementary! From the moment you walk through the doors, it’s clear that this is not just another educational institution; it’s a community dedicated to the well-being and development of every child The principal Mr. Trsar, is nothing short of remarkable. Their leadership style fosters an environment where both teachers and students feel valued and motivated. The principal is hands-on, approachable, and always available to hear parents' concerns, making it easy to communicate and stay involved in my child's education. It’s evident that their passion for education and commitment to the school’s mission inspire everyone around them.The teachers are equally commendable. Each one brings a unique set of skills and a genuine love for teaching that transcends standard expectations. They go above and beyond every day, not just in delivering engaging lessons but also in understanding and connecting with their students on a personal level. It’s heartwarming to see how much they care about each child's success, both academically and emotionally. They create a safe and inclusive atmosphere where students feel confident to express themselves and explore new ideas.The staff at Sons School further enhance the positive environment. From administrative personnel to support staff, everyone plays an integral role in maintaining a safe, welcoming space for students. It’s impressive how well they collaborate to ensure that everything runs smoothly and that all safety protocols are followed, which gives us parents peace of mind.Safety seems to be a top priority at Sons School. The school is equipped with excellent safety measures, and the staff is trained to handle any situation with care and professionalism. This commitment to creating a secure environment allows students to focus on learning without unnecessary worries.Overall, I can confidently say that Memorial Elementary is one of the best schools I’ve ever encountered. The collaborative spirit, dedication to student welfare, and high academic standards make it a standout choice for any family. It’s a place where kids not only receive a top-notch education but also grow into well-rounded individuals. I feel incredibly fortunate to have my son at Memorial Elementary, and I couldn't recommend it more highly!

This school ignored my child's disability, just kept passing him without extra help so that he would eventually be out of their hair. Unacceptable!

have had all of my children in this school over the course of many years. The teachers are all so very caring and helpful. We have had a few changes in principals over the years but this year they really found the perfect one. He is so involved with the kids, parents and staff. Morale is terrific and they always have fun activities planned though out the school year for the kids, reading nights, family fun nights etc. Teachers, principal and staff always put in 200%of their time for our children during school and after as well. Love the reading programs that are enforced to inspire the children and get them motivated. We have a wonderful PTA and they organize so many fun activities throughout the school year. A very family friendly school, I couldn't be happier. Have also had involvement with their early learning program at the school, and cannot not say enough, they are so caring and helpful. I do not know where we would be without their nurturing, guidance and kindness.

Don't think this is the greatest school in the district. It's currently not meeting federal education standards, and my children have both struggled. We moved last summer and are now in a better district, and my kids are doing so much better! My son actually enjoys reading now.
