Harrisburg Elementary School Reviews

We moved from another state during the school year. Our daughter was warmly welcomed, assigned a buddy to help her adjust, and within a month felt a sense of belonging. The school welcomes parents as volunteers, members of the PTA, and participants in Family Fun Nights. We were more than pleased with the small school, involved principal, and caring teachers.

I attened this school when I was young and I am now 34. We just recently moved back into the area so my son can go there next year when he starts Kindergarten. They have alot more parent participation nights and extra curricular events than the other Elem. schools in the area ...

I personally attended Harrisburg Elementary many years ago and it is still one of the best grade schools in the district and currently my daughter attends there. I wouldnt be comfortable having her anywhere else! Although they may not be up to par as the city schools may be, the school makes up in what really counts in may other aspects of education.

What a great school, the best of all worlds. A small atmosphere, best teachers, enrichment program, great parent involvement. Fun activites, after school program, close by extracurricular activities. What a positive adventure for any child. The school is focused on the whole child. What an enjoyable experience it has been so far.

Harrisburg is a wonderful little country school. The staff is truly dedicated and caring. There is significant parental involvement. Unfortunately, due to the size of the school, there is limited extracurricular activities of the sports nature. It is made up for though, in the wonderful activities offered.
