Our children have thrived at Beverly Farms after moving from another school in the district. Beverly Farms, by contrast, is a school where the staff knows each child. It is a friendly and welcoming community and the teachers are passionate about helping their students learn. The Beverly Farms teachers ensure that the kids are challenged and prepared for the next grade level. Family engagement is also high, with a number of community events that are well attended.

As a student who went to Beverly Farms 1 year ago, I can tell how the experience went. First of all, in school there is absolutely no homework. Which in my opinion is very wrong and pathetic. Children don't learn much at school and teachers just don't stay intact with parents unless an event is/has happened. However, safety is not a concern for children and parents as they have a high/strict protocol. However, some teachers(Not all) don't handle bullying very well as they just tell the children to stop and they may or may not listen. Some staff also have trouble handling kids who don't behave well. Coming back to Family Engagement, parents don't even know what their child is learning about in school especially when they don't get graded papers back, emails, and homework.... The special education in this school is not bad as they give high support to the people who need help. Overall, the teaching part in Beverly Is not the best with a very average skill, but additional things are not that bad. Depending on your likes, I would just say Beverly Farms was a good but not outstanding school... and I would be neutral about it.

The principal and staff are wonderful. Some of the 3-5 grade teachers could be better. This is definitely a 10/10 school.

The school was demolished and rebuilt and opened in January of 2013 and completed its first full year in the 2013/2014. Beverley Farms provides a wonderful environment and start of the art facilities. The teachers are wonderful and the PTA is very active. My child was in kindergarten and the curriculum was fabulous with creativity and critical thinking playing a big part. The teacher communicated constantly with parents sharing what the students were learning and doing each week. I am very pleased with the education both in terms of academics and life lessons. Administrative staff are also very helpful and approachable.

I love the staff they are super nice and some of the teachers are great too. The parents are pretty snobby but the worst is the homework! It is too much. So much that my daughter started to have stomach aches and did not want to go to school some times. Some time teachers dont let the kids go for recess to finish their work which I think is a bit much. Nobody can study and not relax. And we are talking about first grade and second grade here..

We have moved from the west coast and we have been here for a year. I love the staff and my son's teacher is great. He started in the middle of kindergarten and the teacher was a nightmare. My son was so scared of her. It was horrible but in first grade he is much happier. There is no diversity really. Poeple are super snobby and moms are like from high school. Home work is a nightmare. So much for my first grader he has stomach ache all th time. All these parents want is to teach their kids advance level. First graders are reading and doing math at second level and third level and second grader are reading and doing math at third or fourth level. How by doing so much homework and not playing enough, The only thing good is about the school is the staff...
