| 5/14/2012 | parent | I couldn't be more pleased with the hard working staff that does their best to understand the strain that being a military family can put on a child. LOVE the brand new principal (might be why she was confused about EFMP meaning from previous comment) She is fair and firm, and super active with the students! I also enjoy the PTO and all that it does for this school. They raise funds for field trip transportation, family fun nights, recess equipment, library books and other educational supplies! Being with other involved parents makes it feel like we are part of the family (The Cougar Family, that is!) Please get involved,and be apart of that family! We are going to miss you Clarkmoor! |
| 3/23/2012 | parent | Do not use this school planning on using a waiver. I met with counselor before my son started kindergarten & expressed concerns about his behavior & being on a waiver. I asked about an IEP or 504 plan to prevent waiver from being pulled. I was discouraged & told the school HARDLY EVER pulled waivers. Kindergarten came & went with hardly an issue. 1st grade started & I was in the principal s office second day of school. This continued for next month or so. Once my husband picked him up & mentioned to principle he was enrolled in EFMP. The woman looked at him like he was speaking a foreign language & had no idea what EFMP was. We got no support from teacher or staff, except for the imbedded school mental health professional from the hospital. But I found her on my own, too late. The school not once mentioned that they had that support available right on campus! My son s first grade teacher belittled him in front of the other students & yelled at him. I was even told by one of the other parents that she mentioned to them that she was overwhelmed & couldn t handle the stress! We pulled our son from that horrible school, receiving a letter a week letter stating his waiver was pulled. |
| 3/20/2009 | parent | I have my 4 kids at this school, I volunteer there regularly and couldn't be more pleased. Very tight knit community and school, everyone knows everyone and PTO is very agressive and involved. Clarkmoor defines what a neighborhood school is all about, concerned parents, teachers and administration working together to make the students educational experience well rounded and rewarding. |
| 1/15/2007 | parent | My step-daughter has done well at this school. The only suggestions I have are that perhaps there could be a more rounded lunch menu. We are vegetarians at home and offer choices to our children. Both girls have chosen the veggie lifestyle as well. I have had complaints that other than a simple salad, there are no veggie style lunches offered. Other children tell her they are vegetarians as well and sit down to munch on their hamburger while she eats her salad. Studies have proven that vegetarian diets promote a more healthy lifestyle and are less likely to lead to obesity and diabetes, just to name a few benefits. I would like my daughter to be able to continue the lifestyle so we will be packing a lunch for her. |
| 6/5/2006 | parent | This is a very good school. I love that this school is really there for military parents. |
| 3/22/2006 | parent | This is a very good school. the teachers are very caring and understanding of the lifestyles of the military families. The only thing that concerned me is the emphasis they place on the WASL, especially for the 4th grades, who don't get to go on field trips or activities of that sort until after they take the WASL. Also, students have to eat their lunches in the classroom. |
| 9/20/2005 | parent | The academic programs are ok...My son needed extra help and I didn't feel that he was given the help that I requested. One teacher was willing to help him out, but his homeroom teacher did not agree to let him receive the extra one on one help and he ended up being held back. PTO is great..Lots of parent involvement and activities for kids. |
| 12/18/2004 | parent | My daughter went to this school for 1rst and 2nd grade. This school was an OK school. Some of the teacher's were great and other's not so great. I would have to say overall this was a good school. |
