Open Quote Reams Road Elementary school is a great school for students of various racial backgrounds. It has a very supportive staff and the adminstration stands behind their students. Reams has many fine qualities but it could improve on its support with extracurricular activities. Students are part of Reams on many different levels and the sports is the one area that Reams lacks support. Reams Elementary would be a 5 star school if the sports and the academic could find a way to share the victory and all that Reams has the potential to offer. Close Quote
