I went to elementary school here way back when. I was in the gifted program, so I had classes with…read morethe same students every year from 1st through 4th grade. I hated that we had to wear uniforms, especially at a public school, but I must admit that it did make choosing an outfit for school much easier. I'm sure the school has changed a lot since I went there, but I really loved my time at Mark Twain Elementary. Overall, I met some great teachers here, and Mrs. Seaton (my first grade teacher) has remained my favorite teacher ever to this day.

Especially the lady with black hair; Rosa I believe.

It's truly heartbreaking. Parents, please take your children to a school that celebrates differences!

I'm updating my review here as some things have changed since my last review. I've seen efforts…read moreincrease to upkeep the school which is great. I also was able to connect with staff to discuss my sons needs and received support almost immediately. As far as my review star rating staying the same, I'd have to say there's still some issues here that need to be address. The recent events which caused major safety concerns are tragic. However, I am in understanding that the world we live in today safety around schools is worldwide. My concern is how the school has communicated there safety procedures to families. They aren't meeting my expectations when it comes to understanding efforts that are being taken to protect our kids. The communication between administrators and parents is lacking in a major way. My son, however, loves this school. He finds comfort in the community of his teachers and friends. It's made it difficult for me to remove him. I'm now making an effort to find ways that I can support the school and my son. I'll be keeping a close eye here and reporting back as I'm hoping improvements will happen soon
