Open Quote Robious Elementary is a wonderful school. The teacher's are terrific educators that genuinely care about the children. Opportunities for parent involvement both in and out of the classroom are plentiful and the teachers and the administration are truly appreciative to the parents for what they add to the school. The school is an Expeditionary Learning School which allows the children to investigate a subject in-depth and honestly learn the material not just memorize facts for a test. In addition, the children are expected to show kindness and generosity towards each other and I have been amazed at the caring environment that my kids get to be a part of every day. We will probably never move from our house for fear of not finding as good of a school for our children. Close Quote
