Crabapple Lane Elementary School

Our children have been at Crabapple for several years now and I cannot recommend it highly enough. It is a wonderfully caring environment for children. Our kids have been challenged academically in a positive environment that expects excellence yet lets kids be kids. We have one child in special education and we have felt from day one that we have a team of teachers and administrators that are dedicated to seeing him flourish.

Fantastic experience. Great facility, caring teachers, and fantastic leadership.

The school is run like a prison. The administration is only concerned about achievement and appearences as opposed to providing a nurturing environment for young minds. I had 4 children attend CLES. We couldn't wait to transfer out of that school.

We moved here 8 yrs ago from overseas. We had success academically and socially despite not being able to enroll in full time preschool prior to kindergarten as much of this working community does. Our kindergarten teacher knew right away that our daughter was behind in sight words. She gave us the tools we needed to catch up. Also our first grader was not strong in ability to learn math concepts as easily as her peers. Again, the teacher intervened by introducing us to the EIP. Now as a 7th grader attending a very diverse MS she is maintaing A/Bs in math, reading and English. I will always be thankful to our CLES teachers /faculty for identifying these weaknesses and providing the extra time, tools and attention to help maintain a strong GPA. We see grades go up as needed with confidence because someone showed an interest / concern early on in our adapting to and learning in a new country /culture.
