Wonderful. Teachers always take time to get to know your child and there needs individually. They put a lot of time and effort into kids that are gifted and talented which is not easy to find at schools. They are huge advocates of not bullying. They push your child when needed. They will commend them when they did a great job too. Very warm and friendly school.

The principal and staff don't evaluate the children, if you are a parent that is prone to making a scene then you will have priority here. The rest of us are left feeling bullied and confused as to how the behaviors of "chosen" students are left to fester into the classroom environment that dictate the day to day attitude and environment for all students. Pray that your child is not caught between the lions and the sheep because they will slowly be beaten down until they cannot develop into their own person. Pay close attention to music, PE, and the principal for favoritism that will dictate how your child is left to fell inadequate.

We moved to the Sheridan Green neighborhood in January 2012, and my oldest started kindergarten there that fall. The teachers and staff made us feel very welcome and I'm so glad we chose this school. We now have 2 kids at the school (2nd grade and kindergarten), and we're still very happy with Sheridan Green.

Great School! Teachers & Staff are very caring The technology in the classrooms is great. Small class size makes for happy learners. The only thing lacking is the Playground.

We have attended Sheridan Green since Kinder and are transitioning to the middle school next fall. Overall experience at SGE has been positive but a few years ago the school began struggling with a consistent decline in enrollment and limited resources. Some is explained by shifting neighborhood demographics, but this doesn t explain why neighborhood and choice-enrolled families with resources have opted to leave SGE. The 2013-14 year will be pivotal in determining whether SGE can create a strategy to manage the decline and return to a great school. Pros: Strong PTA leadership & fundraising, welcoming school environment, core group of exceptional teachers and a consistent group of parent volunteers. CONS: Several split-school staff positions resulting in low retention of quality teachers in those positions, an ageing group of excellent core teachers, an inability to recruit strong new teachers, poor placement/training/supervision of new teachers, hands-off management style of the principal, and less-than-satisfactory communication from administration to parents.

I have 2 children attending this school and have 1 going into kindergarten this year. My children have been very happy here and the teachers have always gone above expected standards. I am very proud of this school. I hope many more families will choose Sheridan Green as their home school.
