I would like to know how parents and taxpayers in Ewing School District feel about the school. No need to get nasty--just if you feel it is a good education. I am thinking about buying in that school district.

It's a small community school, but I have heard VERY good things about it. Look up their school report card online, you will get all kinds of info. Good luck with your move.

Thanks for the info, Sally; I forgot I could get it there. I have also heard good things about it since I posted earlier. I even heard it was the best grade school that feeds into the Benton High District.

You have to be in a click or you will be there by yourself. The grades dont matter if the kids hate you cause of what you wear or what church you go to. Good luck keeping up with the cliks. For every kid that grows up and makes it in life a hundred have failed

I had two Children graduate from there and we loved the teachers but the clicks as who u are is the truth the classes are seperated on what you wear and who has the money flow. Same with sports. Kinda funny now that the ones who thought they were the big shots in the class are no where to be seen or heard of. MIne were so glad to move on to high school as I was. The teachers try to force the seperated groups to do everything together even off school grounds and caused many issues. JUst my suggestion and the reason their report card is so good is due to the special kids being super forced and tounge lashings from the past principal. Taxes way to high for that school and once they go to the high school as far as sports other students dislike them cause they are used against other kids.I will say the sports program does work hard and deserve what they have gotten. We moved asap after they were done. Good luch and I hope you make that a choice thats good for you and your family.Just my suggestion not sure what grades your kiddos are in but the older they are the harder it is for them to fit in.Good luck!

My kids started there and it was great at first but, that didn't last long....... if you did not grow up there your kids will be singled out. Small towns are great but they do have there downfalls. Everyone knows everyone and if your new they won't except you unless you got a pocket full of money. Great teachers but they don't have manners. Good luck!
