Second grade cannot get worse than this. A school with no ethics. Teachers who have no empathy. They exhibit a passive aggressive behavior with parents. Complain complain is all they know about. Wondering how people believe this is a good school district and come here. No way this is on par with the other school districts like Princeton or West Windsor.They have one of the worst teachers and guidance counselors and keep parents guessing because they never reply to any emails. Why complain when you can't take an action? Kids who are bullying are considered assertive and those who face challenges are labeled as being socially awkward. My kid's confidence and happiness has literally crumbled at this young age because of the teacher and how she has allowed bullying to continue and never gives a chance for my kid to express real concerns with friends . I pray everyday that my kid gets the strength to face the day with these horrible teachers .

It in an amazing community for young children to grow in. I learned so much by going there and so has my family. They make an effort to make sure each student is striving and have an endless amount of opportunities.

Very crowded , inconvenient start and end times for the school. 9:30- 4:30 (...

This school is over crowded with too many people moving into Montgomery and happens to be the only elementary school from K-2. The problem I see is that the so called "6" day schedule doesn't focus on any valuable pattern of education for the kids. The emphasis on Math or writing is far less compare...
