I hate this school . The teachers dont communicate. Theyre unorganized and lost my money and my form for t shirts. A teacher got an attitude with my 5 year old. Im grateful i found a better school for them next school year. This school is a joke.

My children attended Lamar Elementary for 3 years. One attended 3rd 5th grades and the other K 2nd grades. The teachers we encountered were great except for one who was nice but not a good teacher in my opinion. The principal and front office staff where always friendly and helpful. We loved our experience at Lamar Elementary.

My daughter is in her 3rd year at Lamar Elementary and so far we have been very pleased with all aspects of this school. Her kindergarten teacher (Ms Parker) has been teaching there for many years and still has such loving enthusiasm about her position and in meeting the needs of the children. Her 1st grade teacher (Ms Neubauer) was a first year teacher and we could not have asked for a better experiance with her. Now she has Ms Nelson who is both fun-loving and challenging in the classroom. All of the teachers there seem to be very happy which leads me to believe that they are managed by inspirational Administration. The playgrounds are some of the best in town because of the wonderful mature trees! Each year I have met several other wonderful parents of my daughters classmates which makes the school feel very community/family orientated. Look forward to my son starting kindergarten there next year!
