We love Orems! It has been such an amazing place for my kiddos. Our family has had such a positive experience at this school! Both of my children look forward to going each day, which says a lot. The teachers care about their studentsnot just academically but personally as well. They take the time to get to know my children and make them feel seen, valued, and supported. The staff goes above and beyond to make sure the environment is safe, welcoming, and encouraging. Communication with parents is consistent and helpful, and I always feel like I know whats going on in the classroom. They have such cute events for the families and even resources for the community. The whole school community feels like a familyfriendly, respectful, and invested in helping every student succeed. Ive watched my kids grow more confident, curious, and responsible since starting here, and I can honestly say theyre thriving both socially and academically. Its such a relief as a parent to know theyre in a place where theyre not only learning, but happy and cared for every single day. We love you Orems Elemntary! Id highly recommend this school, we started two years ago and will be sad in 3 when I dont have children in the school anymore!

I graduated from Orems Elementary in 1997. At the time, the school was lacking in quality resources. However, I rarely had an issue with any of the teaching staff. I also liked the educational opportunities offered toward the end of my Elementary School career, when they allowed for advanced 4th grade students to participate in classes at the 5th grade level.

This school is seriously in need of major changes. They need new technology and a change for the better. Overall the teacher's are great, and really care for for our children. But they need to reconsider some of the work they expect the younger children be able to do. Also the communication between the parents and the school isn't very good. Communication should be the key for the children to succeed, which isn't happening here. Their response is that they have too many children to deal with. Even when the child has special needs they don't communicate well, and has to go though the school principal or asst principal for approval. The parking at the school is terrible. You gotta provide proof for everything even down to have a child with medical needs to prove they have to have limits or what ever. Gotta fight for everything....and pretty much you face a lot of negatively the way they talk to you as a parent. Orem's is in need of major changes...

This school is wonderful. My daughters 1st grade teacher is very qualified to teach her and has done an excellent job in doing so. The school offers a 100 book challenge that helped my daughter read extremly well at her age.
