Posted By: parent Quality Score: decline 2009-08-02 “My son is a rising 2nd grader and we have been thrilled with his experience at Oakhurst!” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2009-07-26 “The teachers are fantastic. My daughter loves Oakhurst. My only complaint is about the poor planning of the Decatur school board, which failed to see that Decatur was quickly filling up with children. Now there are trailers at all the elementary schools, while the school administration is using a perfectly good, renovated school for their offices!” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2008-08-15 “I love the school and their curriclum system. The tearchers are fabulous. I love the atmospere, the only thing I have had a problem with was the principle. She has not been the easiest person for me to get along with and my kids have been going to this school for well over 4 years and my opinion of this principle haven't changed. Overall the school system is great!!!!!!!!” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2008-05-31 “Wonderful school! We have been so happy with the teachers, staff & fellow parents.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: decline 2008-02-15 “We have two gifted children and were very impressed with Decatur schools in general but we were particularly pleased with this school's gifted program. Not only is the pullout teacher outstanding but most of the regular classroom teachers are gifted certified and are very good at making sure that ALL children in the classroom are challenged. The Expeditionary Learning Model also really provides challenge to gifted children.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2007-11-01 “We absolutely love Oakhurst School. The staff is first rate, the teaching is engaging and authentic, and the expeditionary learning model is fabulous. There's a strong school culture, and it feels clean and secure.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2007-01-08 “Wonderful community K-3 school in a RAPIDLY gentrifying district. Expeditionary learning is great and is a rare thing to find in a school that tests so well.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2006-06-30 “Great school! Highest scores in the district as of 2006 and they still manage to have extensive arts and foreign language programs, and the kids still get recess daily most of the time. Plus they have a wonderful outdoor student garden that the kids care for and are building a $20,000 outdoor classroom. Also, thank goodness they don't send home those hideous standardized test practice worksheets every night like so many schools do these days- ugh! Great teachers, loving principal! Bravo!” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2005-12-10 “Small class sizes, great small community feel, high energy teachers who are truly devoted to their students, very slick curriculum. They have a TV station that all of the children utilize, and their shows have won national awards. All in all a cream of the crop school!” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2005-05-10 “This is an outstanding school with terrific teachers and one of the most dedicated principals that I have ever seen. This school has an interesting, fun and challenging gifted program and also has a very extensive and successful Spanish language program. The school was renovated about 2 years ago and is beautiful. The classrooms are huge with lots of big windows and natural light. They are implementing an ELOB program next year that parents and teachers are thrilled about. Can't say enough good things about this school!!”
