I went here from K- (mostly) 5th! Unfortunately I had to move to across the country before I could finish my 5th grade year. Im currently a junior in highschool and I still have such fond memories of this school! I remember loving being able to have art and music classes! Not sure if they still have them but for any parents looking to put their kid here I HIGHLY recommend it! Especially if you are a person of color, they are very accepting and multicultural! When I was a student they had a multicultural night and encouraged kids to bring their own cultural food and candy for everyone to try! I also recommend their after school clubs! I made many great memories from them.

I am so sad to leave Goldsmith Elementary. I have put my two daughters through Goldsmith, K-5. My youngest daughter just graduated 5th grade here. For being at the same school for 12 years has been a great experience for me as a parent and my daughters as students. From Ms. Jones to Mr. Renner, we have personal bonds. The staff I cant say greater things. We will miss so many. Goldsmith became an extended family. We will hold and cherish all the fun memories of Goldsmith.

My child is in the immersion program and really seems to be doing well. He's picking up a lot.

I don't believe elementary school students should have any homework, though. Live life and read books!

Teachers really seem to care about their students. My daughter transferred from another school and I was pretty apprehensive about the move. The teachers and staff made it a smooth transition. My daughter formed strong friendships and is being challenged (and supported) academically.

Worst school my daughter has ever gone to. My daughter was there for two years when I finally pulled her out and sent her to a private because we couldn't get a transfer to go somewhere else. Teachers were terrible, My daughter didn't get the help she needed or the education they promised us.
