Im shocked that this school isnt rated 5 stars across the bored! My experience enrolling my 3rd grader as a transfer student, new to the district, has been so impressive that I wanted to personally take the time out to leave a review! Staff members are genuine, caring, and involved. Every interaction with them has been above average- and my kid comes home from school every day happy and with no complaints. Parents need to do there part and show there support because there is no way armin jarr elementary shouldn't be praised for the quality effort they put into their students. Thank you educators!!

I think you Phys Ed teachers push religion and make it obvious who they think is God. We don't all fall under that. Please don't push beliefs on our children, just teach or coach them.

I dont think that the great schools rating is an accurate depiction of where this school stands. Theyve come along way in the past few years!

I think the leadership is good, but they need some new direction.

responding to the last poster about special needs kids, if you look at the percentage, Armin Jahr has the same amount of spec ed students as the national average. I know you're trying to be helpful with your tips but the unfortunate thing is that if you are in the Armin Jahr district there isn't much you can do. No other school is going to take your child, spec ed kids are very discriminated against. Spec ed kids deserve an education just like everyone else.

I have had three children go all the way through this school. i would say that the teachers (for the most part) care and encourage each child. However, there are not too many teachers there who push themselves to excell above and beyond an 8 hour day. I have been involved with the school, they all know me there. There was never a problem with my kids that they didnt work out ( and we had a few). I noticed most of the bad ratings were for special needs kids.....maybe there should be a different rating for those kids, because i agree, this school is maxed out on special needs kids, and may not meet all your needs.
