Open Quote I agree with the first poster. Nothing to offer gifted children and too many children labeled ADD. They can't understand why a parent would be reluctant to label and medicate their child. They caused me a lot of unnecessary stress over this. There were 4 other children in my childs class that were already medicated. That is just the ones I knew about. I pulled my child out of this school in the middle of first grade and put him in the charter Montessori. His daydreaming and lack of motivation were gone overnight! He is in middle school now at a different public school. He has straight A's with AP classes in both Language Arts and Math, is in the gifted program and attends Duke for summer studies. All of his teachers have great things to say about him. I can't even imagine what a mess he would be now had I listened to this school! Thank God I didn't! Close Quote

Open Quote I have 2 children that have attended Robison Elementary from K-5. Both children received a wonderful education and built stromg friendships with teachers and well as fellow students. The only thing that I would complain about is the before and after school program and the pre school program was taken away from us parents about 3 yrs ago. The program that Robison Elementary offered was a great program but was farmed off to a much less reputable program in a basement of a church. But other than that the school itself is a great place to start a great future in learning. Close Quote
