The principal at this school has created such a sense of community between teachers and amongst the students. This creates a great environment for learning and personal growth for kids.

It should be noted that the scariest score is the academic progress.
The area this school is in is full of families that have relocated. So if the school isn’t showing academic progress then are they really effectively teaching or are they just somewhat maintaining what these relocated children have come here already knowing?

Text books are not allowed to leave the classroom. No study guides or materials are sent home before tests for review. Homework only comes home for two subjects and all other subjects are in class only.

Teachers are not concerned with student progress at all. It’s all about making the grade and they will fudge scores to keep them up.

Leadership is effective but they are more concerned with feelings than academics. The schools test scores are going down but they’re winning awards for student emotional connection.

Some learning differences are supported, not all.

OES creates a wonderful learning environment. As a new student from another state my grandchild was quickly taken into the fold. His teacher identified a problem and quickly set plans in motion. He loves school now. I think his teacher went beyond expectations. The school offers so many opportunities for students to grow.

We love this school. The staff are extremely welcoming, professional and just seem to love their jobs. My little one actually loves heading off to school everyday and I'm always amazed by what she's learned. Some schools just strive to cram in knowledge for testing but OES seems to really care about the overall growth of children. We love it.
