Palms Elementary School Reviews

 
I have been a non parent volunteer at Palms School for six years in many capacities. There has been great improvement during that time in teacher performance and parent involvement based on numbers and feedback. Palms is the only school in this district where the principal has conducted a thorough (100 families) random yearly survey of progress in many areas including her performance. Based on results, the Palms community gives both teachers and the principal high marks in many areas. The PTA just concluded another exemplary year with increased membership and a successful year end community picnic. The City of Lakewood in which Palms is located, honored the principal this year for work with the community, one of the few people so recognized. She was able to bring these skills from her pervious assignment where her school was recognized as a National Blue Ribbon School, the first in her district.

I have three children at this two which transfered from another school due to a move and I am very disappointed. The principal of Palms does not handle matters as she should and some of the teachers I've had experienced just do't seem to care about the kids. Two teachers my kids have had are excellent but the rest-have this I don't care attitude. I'm also disappointed because my neighborhood does not have parent involvement and realiztically some of these kids are not growing up with morals, values and manners therfore they don't know how to respect other adults and children. I feel the school needs to take better control on the kids and have teachers that are willing to kick it up a notch to make a difference.

I am very happy with Palms. I have a K and G3 this year and the teachers a amazing. They are patient and wonderful with the children. I help out a lot so I get to see it firsthand. You can feel they really care about the children. There is not a lot of extracurricular activities, but they have great fieldtrips and often go the extra mile to bring the kids to get better in their studies.

My son attends pre-k at palms, it's a great school. The teacher is wonderfull. She's great with the kids. The class aids are very nice to.

We are having a problem with the principal (2006). she is not afraid to treat your child like a number rather than a human being... very discouraging.

Its a good school I just believe you are over loaded which in turn overloads the kids. Good luck in the next year.

Palms is a great school the teachers are wonderful and stay involved with the students. The teachers are very good with communicating with parents about the student progress.
