“Overall, we are very pleased with Orange Brook this year. Our daughter's first grade experience was a wonderful. I would like to suggest a parent contact sheet (voluntary ofcourse) for students and their families to keep in contact with each other outside of school hours. I was only disapointed with the amount of parent involvement there was at the school this year. It was very difficult to get a hold of parents or to get them to attend school functions after school. As for the teacher quality, we couldn't have been happier!”

“This school is not good at all. It may look good on the outside, but there is nothing good about it. There is no extra curricular activities, and hardly any field trips. The teachers are uncaring, and the learning is text-book only, because the principal won't allow otherwise. To pick up your children, you have to go through the entrance which is full of turns and very gasoline consuming. The principal lacks leadership, and the students dispise going to lunch because they can't even socialize there. All in all this school is horrible, and I wouldn't reccomend it to anyone.”

“Great school. I moved my kid from a private school and we are so happy with Orange Brook. Teachers are great, everybody is very helpful and they are there for your kid. The school is brand new and clean.”

“I am absolutly disgusted with this school, as a parent.They have absolutley no consideration for parents. This used to be a better school a couple of years ago. My children have been attending for years & I can't wait till my last one is out! I hope I get get em' transfered. The new building is very nice. But, it is all outward appearance. It would be a good idea for them to have aftercare p/u in the back of the building instead of us having to do 'The Walk' around the construction to get our children. It is very inconveinent for parents, students & teachers. The teachers used to be alot more loving to the students. That's why I first brought my children here. Now they seem irritated & not as caring.”

“School just started and my son had entered kindergarten. I thought at first it would be a disaster, but Orange Brook is such a good school. We went throught the first day with flying colors.”

“My child has attended Orangebrook Elementary since Pre-K and has been very happy. We have had wonderful teachers who not only teach well but also motivate the children to want to learn. My son is in Kindergarten this year and has learned many skills which are essential in his educational growth. Mrs. Vaz has taught him to read, and he has also learned various mathematical skills. The mere fact that he is learning is important but more important to me is that he wants to continue learning more. He truly enjoys mastering new skills.”
