"My daughter is a first grader at Primrose. She is having some learning difficulties and I must say that Primrose is handling it quite well. They have created an ISP (Instructional Support Plan) for my daughter which has placed her in smaller groups so she doesn't feel lost. She is also in the Reading Recovery program which includes one-on-one time for 30 minutes a day, everyday. I see a big improvement. Her teacher is also very involved and very attentive to my daughter's needs. She emails me with updates and seems to genuinely care about her progress. If you think your child has some difficulty learning, speak up!! The help is there if your child neeeds it!"

"The Kindegarten Program at Primrose was excellent. My son had Mrs. Maria French and by January he was reading books from cover to cover and comprehending and having discussions with us. Also the school really made his interest in Math grow. He likes to add and subtract and for a 5 year old I think this is great. The enthusiasm and excellent classroom skills of Mrs. French and the teaching assistant Mrs. Tomasullo have given our son the greatest education start. So far we are pleased with Primrose Elementary and we look forward to a great 1st grade. Please keep in mind that its a parents responsibility to reinforce what the children learn throughout the day whether its after school, early evenings or weekends. Its your childs future, work with them!"

"I have three children in Somers schools. The teachers - with one or two exceptions - have been outstanding. I do agree that students with any special needs are not necessarily given the attention they may need. I would also say that this is a school district not taking the dual working parents into account."

"I have three children that went through Primrose all at different levels of acheivment. They are all thriving and I attribute much of their success in the older grades to the strong foundation Primrose provided. We are fortunate to live in Somers and have access these quality public schools."
