I have two children (one has been going since first grade and he just graduated the fifth and the other has been going since Kindergarten and is a fifth grade as of August). The teachers are caring and the principal and secretary are wonderful. The special ed classes my daughter takes has helped her out tremendously and I don't know what she'd do without them. The ONLY thing I would change is the entrance to the school because it's not locked and I don't feel that secure.

My son has been at Banks from k-5th. My son and I have been happy with all of his teachers. They are helpful, caring and welcome parental involvment. My son has been successful and he is now in AIG classes. I hate that we must transfer to another school.
