My son attended Anderson for Kindergarten through 5th grade and my daughter is still a current student. The district has had its challenges with administrative decisions and policies over the last few years but Anderson has remained a great school. The teachers do a great job keeping the parents involved and keeping the students engaged in learning. I am very satisfied with the education my children receive(d) while at Anderson. Close Quote

Improper treatment of children who want to learn. Prejudiced type school who is just looking to keep great kids below their level of learning. Bullying is real bad and if your child asks for help the principle and vice principle act like their oblivious to what is going on in their own school lunchroom. Close Quote

My oldest child attended from K-5 grade. Best elementry school in Spring. My youngest child with special needs loves the teachers. You can tell that her teachers love what they do. We are planning on moving to a new house soon and worry we will not find another school that treat the children so well. Close Quote
