[quote=Anonymous]We have a kindergartener at Two Rivers. We've been very impressed with the teachers and administrators. We've never found the playground to be an issue and they do take the kids across the street to the Gallaudet University grounds to run around as well. The neighborhood is improving and we've never felt unsafe walking around there.

I like Two Rivers' problem-solving approach to learning. I like that Two Rivers has excellent reading scores. Math could be better, but is trending upward. I like that every time we've approached the principal with any questions or concerns, she has been exceptionally responsive. I like that she and the other school administrators know every single child by name and greet them at the front door each morning when they arrive. I'm also impressed with the Spanish and Art teachers. Our kid has picked up a lot of Spanish even though they only have class twice a week. One other thing I really like is all of the evening events they do to promote reading and math skills. Every teacher we've encountered at TR seems genuinely engaged and interested in the kids.

I do think the no-holidays thing is wacky, but if that's the only beef I can think of, I'd say TR is doing pretty well. Our child is really happy there. TR is solid on academics and the staff has done a lot to foster a feeling of community and belonging. I feel like we were really lucky to get our child in at Two Rivers.[/quote]
