My child has already begun reading in the first half of TK! The office staff and cafeteria staff are very friendly and observant. Every time I pick my child up from school the Principal and Vice Principal are visible outside watching the kids leave safely, waving and greeting parents and children as they go home. I really appreciate the attentive and caring staff at this school. My child loves going to school at Brown.

I graduated from this school in 2007. It was decent except one huge problem the teachers are…read morebullies!! My math teacher was a terrible person. He was a real jerk and would insult kids in his class constantly. I transferred here my senior year of high school from across the country and he did anything but make me feel welcome he made fun of my clothes regularly and Always had a comment. Seriously looking back I should have stood up to this p.o.s. He made fun of anyone who wasn't a white jock. One day I remember him saying to one kid "oh you're a mouth breather..gross" all sorts of comments like that. If this a hole still works there I hope parents and administration read this and are on the look out for his antics. Fire this terrible teacher and keep him from screwing up more kids. Also my biology teacher behaved a lot the same, although not quite as bad. He was a tall guy with a real stick up his a$$ who always compared himself to Dr. House, super pathetic even back then but still they shouldn't be able to use their power to bully their students. Ms gwin was amazing love her though! One more thing I forged absence excuse letters to turn in to their office about 4 days a week. They never once caught me!

Teachers ignore doctors notes, they use walking around the blacktop as punishment (even if that…read moredoctors note says no physical activity) they tell my child she can wait until she gets home to use the bathroom. The kinder teachers are literally the only decent ones. No field trips for the 2nd graders at all. No parking for parents but they let the favorites without a pass in the staff parking. My child's teacher is the very last class out every single day, no less than 10 minutes after the bell rings to go home. New principal is a joke, she's more like a very bad crossing guard. Liz in the office is a savior and the only light in there.

We love Crowell School! My kids have been going since Kinder and are now in 5th and 3rd. Other than…read moreone teacher that we had issues with (that were addressed) we've had pretty great experiences all around. They also appear to take their school security seriously so that's appreciated. We absolutely love having Ms. Osmer as the principal. She has a lot of experience, is kind but firm when she needs to be, treats everyone equally, knows so many of her students by name, and tries to keep things fun in the midst of all their learning and hard work. I'm hoping to stay in the area so the kids can finish out elementary at Crowell. Only real complaint is the parking and one-way situation. It's a mess getting in and out of there, but that also seems to be an issue at most schools. Some of it is due to poor design, but a lot of it is due to parents not being very courteous drivers.

As a result, girls unfairly blamed boys for various serious issues, including misunderstandings, leading to automatic expulsions and suspensions. Furthermore, the TCS football team faced a shortage of players. I do not recommend this school for junior and high school boys.

In hindsight, TCS Elementary does not look academically strong. When we left TCS after a number of…read moreyears, we found that our child was behind, especially in math. We went from an A in math at TCS to starting at an F at a public school. Our child was not the only child new to the school, but the only student in class that failed the first two math tests of the school year, because a lot of the material was new. Our student has to work hard to catch up and is saying that while TCS was a nice school, "I am learning much more now", and "I like my new school better". I'm glad we made the change. This review is for those who may be in a similar situation and on the fence. Pros: Nice campus, safe. Mrs. D was the best teacher for us. Cons: Many inexperienced teachers. Limited curriculum in science, math, and history.

They can claim that they do not discriminate by race and age but I have the proof. In the past year I have applied and interviewed for five different positions in five different Turlock schools.

It has been my goal for the past two years to get hired as an employee with Turlock Unified Schools but seeing the real picture now I think that it is time to give up.
