Research Beverly Gardens Elementary School public Schools in Dayton, Ohio

“My son has been attending BGE since 1st grade and is getting ready to begin 4th. He has done extremely well and I believe the teachers deserve the credit. I strongly support the school's policy on behavior; I believe they are strict but fair. The school's agenda books are also great. I like that I can communicate with the teachers when I need to and I love that I can get a glimpse into my son's day. While there are not many extracurricular activities to choose from, I don't hold it against the school. With shrinking budgets and growing class sizes I believe the school is doing the best with what they've been given and I am extremely grateful. My younger son is getting ready to start kindergarten and I am sure he'll do well, just like his brother.”

“Moved here in July it's supposed to be the number five school in the state which it has proven itself to me. My daughters teacher is great and makes sure everyone gets where they need to be and is strict yet understanding and does not push too hard. The administrative staff is awesome and though we are rarely there for anything other then to pick our daughter up they know exactly who we are and who our child is which to me shows they take time to care. They are also military family friendly which means a lot to us and the school is right across our street which is also a plus!”

“I have been pleased with this school. The full day kindergarten program is great and they put major focus on reading. However, my oldest child was already reading when she started school and I don't think she got enough one on one time with the teacher. Lunch time is definitely not long enough at this school, especially if your child will be buying. They dismiss the kids by class, so if your child is a slow eater they don't get enough time to finish. Also too much emphasis is put on perfect attendance, my daughter hates to stay home when she is sick because she won't get the reward at the end of the quarter. A plus for the school is it is basically on lock down during school hours, only one entrance is open. But this also means you can't walk your child to class in the morning.”

“My son and daughter go to school here. While I think this school is excellent if your child is a normal student---I think their special education department is lacking (especially dealing with autism).”

“I am very please with BGE and the education that my son is getting there. I feel that I get listened to by the teachers and that we all work together to ensure my son's academic success.”

“I can't say enough wonderful things about Beverly Gardens. My son has been attending since kindergarten, he's now in 2nd grade, and he loves it there. The faculty and entire staff seem to really enjoy all the children and they get to know them all personally. It's like a family there. I'm hoping the other schools in Mad River are just as welcoming and warm. I think it makes learning exciting for the kids. Mrs. Fields is the greatest principal!”

“I feel the smaller classes help all children achieve better than many Dayton Public schools surrounding it. They have a wonderful music program and nice library. The facility is beautiful inside and out.”
