Arbor Heights Elementary School Reviews


Posted By: parent Quality Score: 1 2008-08-01 “I found that little got done when bullying was involved. Teachers favored thier favorite kids and left many others behind. There where times when teachers would just turn their heads on students that where getting made fun of. If you where not a stay at home parent or had a part time job that and could let you devote many hours to the school your child didn't receive the same attention that the others did. Yes, parents are very involved in this school which is hard for the single parent who has to work; which meant that we got stuck with teachers that weren't as good as the next and put with others that where considered less.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2008-06-03 “Arbor Heights was not our first choice for kindergarten, but we have not been disappointed with being placed there at all! As of this school year, both kindergarten teachers are male. Both Mr. Larsen & Mr. Wilkie have an obvious love for kids and teaching. My son loves coming to school! Family and community are an important part to AH in addition to academics. We have always felt welcome and included in and out of the classroom!” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2007-11-01 “Arbor Heights is a great school and has done wonderful things for my girls. As with most any school, there is a mixture of great and not so great teachers. However almost every teacher shows a lot of passion for learning and make learning fun. They have a full time music teacher and gym teacher. The special education teachers are very supportive. Parent involvement is high and the PTSA is able to accomplish a lot. Several fundraising events fund a number of activities for and updates to the school. The principal is successful in many ways, particularly networking, but her skills are lacking in some areas.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2005-10-26 “Arbor Heights is an above-average neighborhood-based traditional elementary school. Perfect size, not too big, not too small. All the staff seem to know all the students, regardless of grade. Grounds leave something to be desired, it's mostly asphalt, but kids don't seem to mind. Academic quality seems a notch above average. Parent involvement seems average. This school could use a larger auditorium/multi-purpose room, as the holiday programs are extremely crowded and standing-room only.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2005-02-19 “I am really glad that my family switch from another school to be a part of Arbor Heights. They a great curriculum that challenges the children. They have a great staff and friendly parents that love to be involved with anything that needs doing. I had one child that was struggling and they recognized it and got him the help he needs. I also have another child that was excelling and they recognized her for her achievements. They Principal is certainly hands on and you see her in classrooms and being involved as well. they have great fieldtrips for the children and lots of opportunities for them to learn and grow. This school is top notch and should be modeled.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2004-12-06 “This is my first year at Arbor beights with 3 children attending K, 1st and a 2nd grader, it has been such a positive experience, the principal and teachers are very positive, upbeat and caring and the kids have flourished, I am so glad we made the move.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2004-01-09 “Arbor Heights is a neighborhood school. Most of the students live in the neighborhood and form lasting freindships. The staff really cares about the children and help them learn and grow. My children are in grades 3 and 5 and love to go to school. This tells me that they are very comfortable at Arbor Heights. The principal is not above the children, she gets down to there level and shows them that she cares.”
