Eva Turner is a small neighborhood based school. We have a great staff with little changeover (which certainly benefits the kids) Some of the best teachers and staff - Mrs McGowan and Mrs Hoza (K, with over 30 years experience) Mrs Scott and Miss Michelle (Pre-K) Ms Matari (art) Mrs Rios (Parent Liasion) Mrs Kazim (PTO pres) Mrs Penny (school secretary) Mrs Cherry (counselor) Mrs Wray (library) Mrs Freundel (reading) Mrs Corsey (speech) Our parent volunteers (which includes me!) are awesome. Volunteers help all the teachers and staff - which free's the teachers to focus on the kids. There are plenty of things for volunteers to help with (so keep this in mind with your own childs school) Eva Turner has several after school clubs: Art, Chess Math team, Destination Imagination, Just Say No and Band. We are a Title 1 school - which is great for everyone. The school offers several parent classes every year and activities for families. There are only 2 buses and several daycare vans this year - the rest are walkers. Next year we are getting an additional 140 kids, so there's going to be buses. (but our school will still have less than 500 total) We have recently had upgrades to our school (a beautiful wing including new K and Pre-K classrooms and kitchen) smartboards in the classrooms (what a great concept). Our school is poor, 75% qualify for free lunch and we are always in need of donations. Ooops, now it seems like I writing a bad review but we've been here 5 years so far and I wouldn't change it. if we could.
