We have a 3rd grader and a 1st grader at Connors and the kids love their school as much as we do! It is a smaller school with a very nurturing environment. The teachers and administrators not only know each child but their families as well and are easily accessible for any questions. Our kids are learning and thriving at Connors. We are proud to be a Connors family.

When it’s bad it’s BAD and the whole place (teachers, parents) seem like a cliquey mess. There are some wonderful teachers there, but the community seems fake, and serious issues are swept right under the rug.

This is a small school and very family-like atmosphere. The principle and the Vice principle are doing a phenomenal job as well as the teachers and staff. The building is old but classes are well maintained.
