    "Harvard is an award winning school that fosters leadership skills and inquiry based learning. The teachers are kind and extremely knowledgeable of their grade level and beyond. I appreciate the IB curriculum Harvard offers...I know that when my child graduates from there she'll be a world learner read for the 21st century."

    "I love the "sharing the planet" theme Harvard embraces with it's entire staff and students. Everyone that works or attends the school is so "Earth cautious" it makes its' way into the homes of each student. My son is always coming up with new ideas to save a particular animal or how we as a family can better the planet. Great school all around."

    "Everyone should have an opportunity to defend their school, however I am a parent that spoke truthfully about my experience with this school. There should not be any question of a parents integrity if they are merely asking for an enrollment application to fill out at home. After all, when you turn in the paperwork you must turn in all the valid documentation to prove your residency. It almost appears that arrogant and rude behavior is justified and defended and you are already guilty of being dishonest when you walk in the door. The principals comment about assuming my attendance was a talent show is also incorrect, it was Science Night, and everyone is encouraged to attend this function. In close, the school is a 7, not a 10. The list of 130+ is because of the neighborhood and area and the kids that attend the school. In close, when you deal with public in any capacity it is always better to be friendly, courteous, and exercise good customer service."

    "very very very very very very very very bad school .This school kicked a kid out only because a parent did not like the kid because he would talk to the parents daughter.so the parent did anything to take this poor kid out of this cool . finally when this kid was removed from this school he was taken to another school. this parent was actually this kids aunt .Can you believe that. I am angry at this school for believing what this kids aunt said when she told them he was an unpleasant kid to have at that school."

    "The school often encounters prospective parents that are not truthful about their residency, especially in the spring when magnet applications have been accepted and individuals do not like being told they are #130+ on the wait list. This can be perceived as rude and arrogant behavior when in fact, the prospective parent is at fault by not following established policies. Families that are truly zoned to the school are always given an opportunity to enroll with proper documentation. Teachers at Harvard are able to implement the curriculum under specific guidelines established by the school district and the state. To say that creativity is not possible is absurd. It is embraced. Our facilities are certainly not adequate and this person was obviously not happy with an overcrowded talent show that was originally for the children only, not parents. Next year the talent show will return to its roots and be held as an assembly for the student body only. The school district embraces choice and invites parents to choose a schools based on their child's needs. Harvard offers a challenging and quality education to all children. Kevin Beringer, Principal"
