My son graduated Ojus Elementary in 2008 after attending it for 3 years. This is excellent school with great teachers. His teacher in 5th grade was Ms. Morosco. She is wonderfull teacher and person and all the kids love her. Ojus put my son on the gifted programm at the beginning of the 4th grade and it gave him a great start for outstanding Charter school that he is going to and later in life. Thank you to Ojus Elementary and its great teachers for my son's bright future!

I'd say the quality of academic programs is high and this helps the child to learn to be responsible and to be always ready to work hard. This is a preparation for the children for the future when they will be in High School and College; it's really important that they learn at young age how to deal with homework, science projects and how to get ready for tests such as FCAT.

I was a student who graduated last year at Ojus, and I was very sad to leave Ojus because it was a fantastic school, where I achieved so many great things! The teachers are good to work with, and give a lot of praise. The school has many programs which your child can excel in. At Ojus, your child will become a true superstar!

I'm a student, and I just graduated Ojus. Ojus is a very well rounded school. I, myself have done well there. I came not knowing one word of English, and the ESOL program has taught me English. Students get a lot of praise, and are encouraged to do their best. The teachers are fun and multi-cultural. I would recommend this school to any parent who wants their child to succeed. One of my teachers, Mrs. Morosco (5th grade) quoted 'Shoot for the moon, and if you don't get there, you'll still be by the stars.' I would like to thank Ojus.

This school has shown me that they really care about their students. The teachers are excellent and are constantly having the kids striving for achievement. I would like to send special thank you to Mrs. Llanes and Mrs Tapia who cared to make a difference in my child. Thank you to all the staff for making this school an A school!
