Curtis Elementary is a great place for kids. The staff are welcoming and work to meet kids' educational needs as well as social and emotional needs. My children currently in middle school and high school and are doing well, which I feel is due to a good educational foundation which began at Curtis. They have fond memories of their time at Curtis, and often say they wish they could have their old teacher's again.

My children have been going to Curtis for three years. They both love their teachers and have learned SO much. They look forward to going to school. The school is welcoming and encourages parent participation. They have lots of different fun activities to involve families. I feel safe sending my kids to school each day.

Curtis is a great school with wonderful teachers in K-3rd, especially. The admin, all staff, and teachers work very hard, listen, care, communicate well, and do a good job at receiving feedback. SPED team goes above and beyond. I recommend Curtis.

Curtis Elementary School is truly a gem in our community! From the moment we stepped through the doors, it was clear that the safety and well-being of the students are the top priorities. The school has implemented robust safety measures, ensuring that parents can send their children with complete peace of mind.Every teacher that has taught my son has shown their commitment to fostering meaningful relationships. The teachers are not just educators; they are mentors who take the time to understand each child’s unique strengths and challenges.We love the events at Curtis, surely the Chili Cook Off, the teachers work so hard to make it a fun environment. We have loved attending Curtis. I couldn’t be happier with our experience here, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to any family looking for a supportive and joyful educational environment!

As a teacher on this campus I know that nothing is more important than the social, emotional and academic well being of our students. We have an excellent administration that invests in us to ensure that we are always at our best. This ensures that we can offer our students an education that meets their individual needs. Curtis is a very close community of studetns, parents and staff who work together to ensure that each student succeeds.

This school frequently singled our children tha read at a slower pace as having a "learning disability". The classrooms need to have less children per teacher, or more than one teacher to adequately teach.

Wonderful school that is focused on students!

Do not send your child here! On the outside and inside it looks fine but its considered to be an economically disadvantaged school with most kids below the poverty level. This means most parents work two jobs according to the school. This is why they don't give out any sort of homework, school projects, or spelling words! I don't know about u but I want my child to experience homework and school projects. You would think they would prevent our kids from having to work two jobs as an adult by giving them a good education but it sounds like a vicious cycle to me. My child's reading and spelling has dropped since coming to this school. If u can avoid it, don't send your child to Curtis.

This school is exceptional. My kindergartener loved going to class every day and he learned a lot. More than i expected from kinder. I also have a special needs child who attended there...the teachers became part of the family. We just bought a house and will be leaving our beloved school...if i had it to do over again, i would have held out.for a house in Curtis school zone.
