Jordan has significant problems. Teachers range from excellent to disasters-no consistency. No ability to control disruptive students in the classroom.

Mostly great teachers, math teachers vary widely, parent to teacher communication varies widely, some are wonderful, some don't communicate at all, great parent group with good participation

Parent involvement is excellent. Parents volunteer in the classroom (particularly in 6th grade classrooms), in the library, as noon time angels and of course as PTA members. The offering of electives is excellent - music, art, computers, industrial technology, Spanish, Japanese and French are just some of the offerings. Teachers have open channels of communication with parents and are easy to reach by email and some by phone.

Very organized and well structured curriculum, very competitive atmosphere and excellent for students that are academically inclined. Teachers are accessible and respond well to questions, concerns, and suggestions. Parents are connected and very involved in student achievement and school functions. We are very satisfied with the quality of teaching and management.
