Joshua Cowell Elementary School Reviews


Posted By: parent Quality Score: 3 2008-03-26 “I do agree with the situation of the principal and that the district needs to look at replacing her. I have two children and my fifth grader is an honor student. The teachers are Wonderful. We have lived in three other states where the Principal, office staff and teachers were top notch. A principal is the foundation and support of their teachers, students and staff. I can say that we have never experienced a principal who seems to loathe children, teachers and parents as the principal at Joshua Cowell. We are now in another school with a wonderful principal who shows pride and honor to the students, parents and staff.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2007-07-24 “I would like to see music with instruments, voice lessons and plays.” Posted By: student Quality Score: 4 2007-02-25 “ive been attending joshua cowell for 9 years im an eighth grader and i love joshua cowell , all these clames about how bad it is i dont agree with them.. all of the teachers are so caring and ive grown to ahve a relationship with every single one i feel like i can talk to them when i have a problem...i will be graduating from joshua cowell and im proud to say i will miss it so much ive grown up at that school.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 2 2005-03-31 “My children have attentded Joshua Cowell for 3 years now. I have seen this school start out healthy and turn to worse. The teachers here deserve all the credit. They keep in touch with the parents and let you know what is going on with the your child. The parent teacher relationship is outstanding. The teachers truly care about the children and their education. But lately the problem is the principle. My children are quiet and kind-hearted. And the children will pick on them. And I am not just talking about name calling. My children have come home with bruises on their backs. My daughter came home with a black eye. I brought to the principles attention and her response was, ' there is nothing I can do about it'. My children deserve better and so does yours. Don't send your child to this school.” Posted By: former student Quality Score: 5 2004-05-10 “I'm a former student of this school now attending Manteca High, and would like to say that these claims that are nothing but negative come from parent's who apparently could not have little tolerance at all. In the time I spent at this school I did experience that adminastration was not always on top of everything and the 'yard duties' weren't really to par, but the teachers were excellent, at least in my years there (7'th and 8'th). Most of them really cared if the children understood, not just did the work, but got the concept. Teachers maintained disipline in the class very well. As far as 'the playground is unsafe' it's an arrangment of metal for little kids to jump and climb on, it won't be 100% safe no matter what, nor should it be, you can't shelter your child completely. So if you are intrested in the area don't let these complaints throw you into some unnecessary paranoia.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 2 2004-04-22 “The administration shows an amazing apathy for the students, and the district office doesn't seem to care much either. My children will not be attending this school next year, and I am thankful for it. I have been lucky to draw some excellent teachers during our stay here, which is the only thing that made this experience bearable.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 3 2003-11-24 “I have found the elementary teachers to be very caring. They have worked hard with my children to meet state and district goals. I have yet to see the principal interact with ANY child at the school, and have found the administrations safety policies to be virtually nonexistant. Luckily, I am an involved parent that can advocate for my children. Others are not so lucky, and will suffer for it.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 1 2003-11-04 “I recently have moved out of Manteca Unified school district after having my children attend various schools within the district for eight years. They have been attending school with Saddleback Unified and Capistrano Unified school district for the past year. Manteca Unified is a horrible place to send your children. The lack of communication, level of academic learning, and egomania of the district administrative branch is an outrage. Manteca Unified should take advice and lessons from these Blue Ribbon, extraordinary public schools. I'm just extremely glad my first grader is being educated in an excellent school without having to pay for private school.”
