What people are saying

by a parent
Tuesday, January 22, 2013

Llewellyn is overcrowded. We have about 550 kids this year. Each year since we've had our child there, the incoming classes of Kindergarteners have been huge. Temporary classrooms are being used outside of the building to house several classes. Overcrowding creates problems in nearly every area of learning, as well as the social aspect at recess. There are not enough eyes to prevent bullying out on the field. It's unfortunate that this is our current situation because the school is quite lovely with strong teachers and solid leadership.
