I have two children at Cedar Hill and have had a great experience. The staff is wonderful and receptive. I would recommend this school to anyone. If you live in Warwick this is the school to be at.

My daughter was not particularly challenged at this school. As my daughter would describe a typical day, both my husband and I were disappointed in the amount of actual teaching/learning that occurs during the day. Also, although not unique to this school, science scores are low and reflect the fact that science is only taught once a week. I would like to see teachers more inclined to go above and beyond.

I do not agree with the previous comment about "The school follows all the regulartions and programs Warwick sets...". Does city regulations state that No Child Left Behind and No Child Can Get Ahead?

This school follows all the regulations and programs Warwick sets up for them. Many of these reviews reflects the city's programs and not the individual school. Before school and after school programs are set up by the city not the school. The teachers follow the curriculum set up by the city and therapeutic classrooms are part of the special education program which again is set up by the city's school administration. I feel the teachers and parents in this school do a great job with the students. The NECAP test scores show how the teachers keep the students on a proficient or highly proficient academic level. I have been proud to be part of this community.

My son was also consider a higher grade level upon transerferring to Cedar Hill and I was beyond surprised about his acedemic reports. At home he deomstrated even quicker then my ability in math on the spot. Reading was also great. I requested numerous confrences with his teacher who often told me he was distrubitive in class however never made the time to meet with me even tough I volunteered in the class room on a weekly basis. Theres no before school program and even the breakfest drop off the students have no supervision until 8:35am with class statrting at 8:40 thats no time for a child to get a good breakfest. The early dissmissal for walkers is also a burden with the parking only fitting a few cars not to mention they tell the parents to be there at 2:35 bc they childen will be out by 2:40 which never happens and is a half hour of wasted time specailly on a working parent. The 2:50 time is more adequate and its obvious with the no before school program and early dissismal that the children are not getting the most attention through out the day. this year they did start an afternoon sports program which is great just needs more of it and other programs after school!
