Mount Carbon Elementary School Reviews

I love everything about Mount Carbon - the teachers, the very active PTA, the principal, the school building - it's a wonderful school.

Excellent school and caring staff; both of my children attend and are achieving terrific results. I am proud of this school and the surrounding community involvement. Special note: The new full time kindergarten teacher, Mr. Arnold, is an above phenomenal educator.

The 2007-08 school year was the first year my daughter attended Mt. Carbon. I think she is getting an excellent education and is above grade level in reading. The only thing I would say would be that the staff is not to friendly. The last school we were at I felt that the staff was very personal and even went out of their way to learn my name. The feeling at Mt. Carbon is very stiff and even unfriendly at times.

We have found the principal to be full of life and enthusiasm who handles problems in a very professional and reasonable way, the teacher's to be solid and cohesive and the community to be warm and friendly. The acedemics are steady and consistent with a requirement of homework, reading each night and accountability. The children like to go to school and find the environment to be creative and stimulating. A great community of parents, staff and students. After care program is privately owned and hard to use - waiting list. Wish the school had a program they offered through the school district.

I am not a fan of the multi age teaching at this school, I feel like the older kids and the kids who are a little more academically advanced do not challenged enough.

We have only had one of our children attend to date and it has been kindergarden, but have found the teaching staff to be excellent and have sincere desire to teach our children well. It also helps, as a parent, to help and assist at home as often as possible too...like reading often etc...
