Performance scores are low and teacher quality is just not there. The administration is known to turn a blind eye to discrimination by its staff and bullying by student peers despite proclamations that the school is welcoming of diversity.

Needs more diversity and some teachers need diversity training. The test scores need improvement. There needs to be some teacher turnover.

Teacher quality needs improvement. My child's second grade teacher did not seem well trained nor professional in how she handled classroom management and parent teacher conferences.

My child is a student there currently and loves going to school each day. Her teacher keeps th parents aware of what’s going on in the classroom weekly. I trust that she’s in good hands and that they care about the students. It feels like a community in Easton and specifically at SSES.
