Glenmoor Elementary School

I love the environment of this school. The staff here are really friendly, and the children here are very different than most. Very kind, and respectful. There are always a lot of activities going on in this school. There has been Halloween carnivals, and movie nights for the children to attend. The activities they offer include a variety of physical activity and projects. Art class, fitness class, soccer class, choir, play, coding, science, and a whole bunch of other classes for kids. Many of the elementary school basketball games are hosted here. During home games they have a snack bar to enjoy. I love this school! So much spirit, go wildcats!

Great school to attend! The teachers here are all friendly. Definitely a lot of diversity! Young, middle, and older teachers here. The secretaries are so sweet specially the lady that is located in the back! Always assisting and polite! The principal seems very active. Always out during lunch, recess, and free time. Playing and enjoy himself with the kids is always a plus! I can actually know who the principal is. Others schools principals are always locked in their office God knows what they are doing. The students are very diverse and sweet. The location of the school seems safe for the most part! Keep up the good work WILDCATS!

Not reviewing the school. Just as a place to hang out. Sometimes I come here to think and just relax. Good place to visit around the late evening. Not too many people and beautiful location. Definitely recommend for people who want to kick back and just relax.

At my 8-​year old daughters previous school, she was bullied aggressively on a daily basis. The administration turned a cheek and did nothing to help her. At the end of last year, it came to a head when she began having physical reactions to the constant harassment. I took matters into my own hands, I pulled her out and drove her straight to the District Office, with the supporting evidence she was granted an immediate transfer to Glenmoor.
On her first day she was greeted with open arms, and I saw a light amd smile return to her eyes I hadnt seen since Kindergarten. Glenmoor has changed her attitude towards school, she wakes up eager to learn and make new friends.
The difference in the approach Glenmoor takes vs other local schools truly emanates from the staff, core values, administration and students alike.
Thank you Glenmoor!

Not reviewing the elementary school, because I can’t compare it to any other elementary schools, having (proudly) attended one grade school K-​6.
Instead I’m reviewing Glenmoor’s main playground.
Now that I am well beyond elementary school and have little to no recesses in life, I realize how fantastic this playground is. Completely and spaciously enclosed in a sea of tanbark, Glenmoor’s playground features eight swings (a personal favorite), a slide-​monkeybars-​pole complex, and a bunch of separate things to climb on (with no fear of falling). There’s also a completely separate playground for kindergartners.
Whenever I’m stricken by a blast of nostalgia or overcome by the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, I take a stroll down memory lane and swing on one of Glenmoor’s swings for a few minutes. How I wish I had recess every day again!

I remember how my parents were always so proud of how all their kids were, «going to the best elementary school in the district while growing up in the safest city in the country» (because someone, somewhere decided so at the time).
It never made any sense to me because all that mattered really was that I got to see my friends, eat candy, and curl my hair… Ha ha I used to put my hair up in curlers almost every night from around 2^nd to 5^th grade until I got the oh so stylish spiral perm accompanied by the «hair bear bangs» that all the cool girls were sporting. But now, being a mother, I get it!
The 5 stars is for the memory of happy I was while attending this school. I mean so happy there that I remember how my parents would say, «If you don’t want to listen to me you’re going to be grounded from school tomorrow!»
