Twain Elementary School Reviews


Posted By: parent Quality Score: decline 2008-05-14 “My girl attends 1st grade this year and kindergarten last year. So far, the teachers are very caring, and the parents are all very involved and helpful. Principal Rick Burden has been kind, and he is there at the engineering fair and science fair. Hardly any homework. The shortfall is the Maths. I agree with the last parent's review that the Maths is a 'sad, sad joke'. I don't agree that at 1st grade, they are still doing only addition on 0-9 and learning how to read the time on clock ? These are pre-school and kindergarten stuffs.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2007-08-29 “My son is starting his third year at Twain. It is overall a great school. Most of my complaints have to do with the district and state. There is inadequate music, art and science education and the math curriculum is a sad, sad joke. The teachers we have had so far have been terrific, though I sense a certain laziness regarding individualized curriculum for kids. Why should bright kids spend their day sitting around repeating things they already know while waiting for the other kids to catch up? The teachers are kind and clearly care a great deal about the kids. Parent involvement at this school is fabulous and the staff are helpful and fun. The playground could use a little help.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2006-09-18 “i have two kids who've attended twain; one for 6 yrs and one for 4. we have had mostly excellent experiences with both teachers and principal(s). my only concern is more of a statewide one: why no elementary band/orchestra on campus, and why such a small focus on art and social studies? i'd like to see more field trips and exposure to things beyond WASL prep.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2004-12-03 “Mark Twain is a great school.
