I have been taking my daughter to this school from 2007 , When she started kindergarten . And now my son started year 2019 . It has been 18 years to know this school and not things change. The problem are always traffic and on the street vs to the school drive way . It has been 18 years , which not things change and school very dated and traffic. Even they have change many principal and administrators . And now they hanged up the sign for no turn on left from 7am to 3pm . That cost more problem for parents when they drop off the kids and go to work . No left turn inthe morning to noon and the police are always waiting hide in the corner and come out to give you the ticket for violated .When the school dont make any solutions to solving the problems and they mean cost more trouble for everyone . Life has been hard and more problems . Do we have a right and peaceful my in the morning to take the kids to schools and work or we keep fighting with the traffic and ticket s . Whats ashamed.
Im stuck with the school zone and can t move my kid . Unless I have to move my house to different place .

My son has been coming to this school since he was 2. The district is wonderful. My son was born with hearing loss in left ear and since he was 6 months old the district contacted me and helped him out with a speach therapist that would come every month. At 2 they decided to put him in the special ed program at Clinton. I've never had a problem with the teachers and staff at the school. My son is now in 6th grade and they still continue to help him out.

I am sorry upset that is my child's home school. The office staff in unfriendly and didn't acknowledge me for about 10 minutes. The teacher's appeared tired and not happy. The current administer is a big let down as compared to previous administrators. Happy administer = happy staff=happy students! This is not happening at this school! I am planning to transfer my child to another school.

My experience with Clinton Elementary have been good. I moved my daughter this year from another near by elemantary school ( Riverdale), that was not doing anything good for her. At Clinton, she has a great 2nd grade teacher (Mrs. Smith), I know my daughter is not the best student, It is very difficult for my daughter to consentrate in school, and she needs a lot of help, I do blame myselft for some of her struggles. But at Clinton, I have seen a major improve on her. She is now reading, and understanding her homework. We are having trouble with math, but she's getting there. I do thank Mrs. Smith for caring, she helps A LOT, I like her techniques and my daughter loves her teacher.
