The teachers instill values and character with students at all levels every day. Middle school teachers and counselors can tell which students went to AES.

Instruction is differentiated according to abilities and interests. Its one of the reasons AES performs at such a high level.

Mrs Bennett Has no concerns for student and their needs. She does not know how to run a school has made many teacher leave or retire early because the cant stand to work with her. I am hoping to get me children moved with in the district. The district is awesome but as long as she is at armor their is no hope for that school

I have a child in this school from k-5. I would say that my child was a special needs and it took us some time (1-3 grades) to adjust. Between the fatal food allergies of my child to the segregation because of those allergies made her a target for teasing. To which the Principle has the Gaul to say at a Parent teacher conference that she invited herself to to tell us your child is a trouble maker, would be benefited by changing schools because she has such a bad reputation, and shutters to think of what trouble shell be in by 8th grade! Wow. I went to the superintendent shortly after this. After some evaluation my daughter has ADHD, Anxiety (due to the level of her food allergies), and has trouble relating to people. Now that we are meditating and doing play therapy she is doing better but the damage this principle has done to her will take a LOT to undo. Mrs. Bennett should not be a leader in a Elementary school in my opinion as a parent and human. My daughter is not the first she has targeted and sadly not the last.
