Watchung Elementary School Reviews

 
Great School!!!! I think the new Principal is doing a fantastic job!! My children are much happier now. 03/11/09

Horrible school for some especially my child. No equality at all! Academics a priority for some and not for all. Not a great school. Only a good reputation. I wish my child was in another school. My child would be doing much better.

I changed schools twice until I landed at Watchung. What a fabulous school! Academics are a priority, but learning is fun. Great school culture, parent involvement, and teacher/principal concern for kids. When I switched my older daughter in the school in 5th grade, I was amazed at how all the teachers got to know who she was, so quickly. There's no comparison to the other schools. If you can't get in this year, then keep trying through school choice. Eventually, you will get in. It's worth it!

Watchung is a wonderful school. Academics are a priority. When my daughter was falling behind, the teacher immediately stepped in to suggest the STARS tutoring program. It was full, so we went outside for help. I appreciate the communication between parents and teachers.

Watchung is an excellent school with a committed and caring staff. The academic program is first rate! The curriculum is challenging (a little test focus). Parent involvement is maxium! The principal is exceptional. Great leadership! We have two children in the district; and Watchung is by far at the top of the list for best overall school. The other schools should take notice!

My family transferred from Montclair Rand School to Montclair Watchung School and we could not be happier. Watchung School is organized and truly focused upon academics. The upside is that my son thinks that school is fun! The parents are enthusiastic and slammin fund raisers. The school reaches out to all parent populatios (at home, working, low socioeconomic and others). Afterschool-enrichment could be improved and we are working on that issue.

Watchung School offers challenging academics for its students. The parent/Teacher/Administrative involvement is very strong. The school library, science room and PTA events are extremely well organized and financially supported by the PTA. All parents/guardians have a strong involvement in the nurturing and growth of the education offered at Watchung School.
