We had a few nonsensical confrontations that were so minor and, the school made into major issues is the reason behind only the four stars. Nothing serious happens there and you can trust your kid will be safe and well-educated as far as a public school is concerned. The car rider's line is well maintained. The teachers stand outside and wave to the parents. Bus rider's are carefully transported to and from destinations. The school building is secure with locks and intercoms. I wish they had security guards on site. All in all it's one of the city's finest elementary schools.

If your children have any type of social issues (anxiety, difficulty making friendships, struggle…read morewith effective communication when dealing with student to teacher relationships), then this is not the school for them. The school struggles in dealing with the social and emotional growth of the children in its care, and the school is particularly lacking in its dealing with children that don't fit into the mold as to what qualifies as "normal". If your child is on the quieter side, is not the star athlete, is not one to advocate for themselves, then I urge you to look into other education options in Nashville. Your tuition dollars can be applied to any number of private school choices in Nashville that would be leaps and bounds above this school. If you're looking at private schools, look for one that advocates for the child as an individual. There are lots of other options in the area that would handle the well-being of your child, and the needs of the admitted family as a whole, much better. One star. Do not recommend.

Their director, Christie Andrews, joined us for a conference with my daughter's teachers and support staff. Christie presented information in a clear way and provided great examples of what we can all do to support my daughter. She is an advocate for kids with the expertise to back it up. I have been thrilled with my experience at Learning Matters and highly recommend them!

Before this was Eakin it was Calvert elementary comprehensive school I used to go to this school…read moreback in 1972 thru the early part of 1974 I had great friends at this school years ago yes I got in trouble a few times lol but this school was fun during class math was sometimes hard and spelling or reading was ok you just have to remember what the story was about the best teachers I had was miss Bonnafield she was great and worked with me and my parents back then to improve me to make me better and I'm proud to have had a teacher like her now the other things I liked is getting in line to go eat lunch or going outside to play those were my favorite and in the winter I loved the snow when there was no school I loved the springtime to as well as the fall summer was to hot for me but sometimes I get out and play at home during the late afternoons to where it cools down a bit finally the most important thing I liked about Cavert was making good friends and getting to know them !!!!!

Every teacher and staff member in this place, including the principal, are rock stars. I have a kid that needs additional interventions to catch up, and another that is moving well beyond his grade level, and they are both supported educationally with care and professionalism. School counseling support is excellent. It is insanely diverse in every way shape and form, and no matter who you are or where you come from, you will be welcomed into the community here. It is a public school, so it lends itself to the general struggles of public schools everywhere, but I wouldn't want my kids anywhere else. It is a lottery school, so you can lottery in from the outskirts.

The Jewish community day school of Nashville is truly one of the city's gems. Covering grades from…read morek-6, the school encompasses a balance of excellent secular studies and fairly rigorous Judaic studies. Small class size and individual attention has been great for my 5 year old. A combination of 'centers' where a few kids work on the same subject as well as group instruction has not only helped his reading skills, but his interpersonal skills as well. But what really sets this school apart is the fact that it truly is a Community school. The Chabad rabbi sends his kids there and the Reform Rabbis send their kids there. The younger kids all daven together and the older kids can choose between a more liberal or a more traditional service. Last and best is the fact that the kids graduating from Akiva are eagerly snatched up by the prestigious Middle and High Schools in town who recognize the learning skills the kids take with them as well as the knowledge they have gained. For Jewish parents that desire a first class education and want their children to grow up to be imbibed with Jewish values and knowledge, it is a joy to know that Nashville is blessed to have a place this wonderful.
