Edwin J Kiest Elementary School Reviews

 
We are in PKA and my daughter has the best teachers I believe possible.They are great and she is learning so much

My son just transfered to Kiest this year. So far we have been very pleased with the school. Very positive environment. Hes having a blast with basketball and playing the orchestra. So far so good

I have read negative response to the principal but my experiences with her have been totally different. She helped me with getting a Hardship Transfer to keep the sister's together (my daughters)when the district decided to seperate them at the start of a new school year. She was very understanding and very patiently guided me on what I needed to do. Everytime I see her in the hallways or outside of the school, she never fails to say 'Hello'. She has alot of responsability since its such a large school but I think she is up to the challenge and doing a good job of it.

Great teachers by the most part but very weak leadership.

My child has been in this school since 1998 and in those years I have found the teachers to be wonderful and encouraging. Every year with exception of the first year the principal and the support staff have not been helpful and do not seem to take complaints from parents seriously. Often times they are rude and do not welcome questions and concerns which I feel is the reason why their PTA attendance is so low.

The teachers are great, especially in the kindergarden grade. However, the administrative support staff and principal could use PR classes, so they can learn to speak to the parents in a mature manner instead of at a child's level.
