We love Arcola Elementary where two of our kids attend school. The teachers and staff are enthusiastic and parent involvement is high. From volunteering in class to the PTA, parents are always involved (perhaps too much in some ways as many student projects posted in the hallways appear to have been done by incredibly talented children or overly enthusiastic parents). What is most important to me though is that the teachers challenge the kids based on their abilities and not based on their age or grade level.
