You could say that I have a bias towards the Sycamore Community Schools, but a lot of what the…read moredistrict has achieved over the years academically can back things up. I made my way through the Sycamore district from kindergarten all the way through high school, so I've pretty much seen it all. The district has four K-4 elementary schools (two of which were rebuilt this decade), the E.H. Greene Intermediate School (grades 5 and 6), and the Sycamore Junior High School and Sycamore High School. The Sycamore district is located in Blue Ash, Montgomery, and Symmes Township, one of the best suburban areas in town, and it's a big attraction for many non-Cincinnatians especially who move to the Queen City. I had an internship earlier this summer and was told by two different people with young children that they were highly considering moving to the Sycamore Community Schools area. While all the lower level schools are equally important to the district, you see everything come around at the high school level, where SHS offers seven global languages and 21 different AP courses. Academically, I've always considered Sycamore the best public high school in the state of Ohio, but this past year its 31 National Merit Scholars ranked first overall in the entire state. Sycamore has received "Excellent" ratings every year by the Ohio Department of Education and continues to earn a perfect 30 out of 30 on the Ohio District Report Card. While its 89.6 percent college attendance rate can be topped by a few other schools in town, its 96 percent daily attendance rate is right up there at the top. Sycamore has 468 certified employees including 31 nationally certified teachers, while 72 percent of the district's teachers have more than 10 years of experience and 81.5 percent of the teaching staff has a master's and/or doctorate degree(s). Another great thing about Sycamore is the athletic program. Although athletes are now required to pay a participation fee, the boosters (who have raised nearly $1 million in the last 10 years) managed to save all the teams when the school underwent budget cuts four or five years ago. When I was at Sycamore just a few years ago, the Aviators' athletic department offered (and probably still does) more varsity teams and sports than any other school in the state. Outside of sports, there are a ton of great extracurricular activities including the award-winning drama department, while newspaper and choir classes are offered during the school day and have led to many national awards and college scholarships each year. Bias or not, there's no denying that the Sycamore Community Schools is an "excellent" district. I was a part of it for 13 years and enjoyed so much about it and will always be proud to call myself an Aviator.

My son was born a few months before Covid hit and so I was very nervous about his first preschool experience. The Gardner school made it so easy and enjoyable for him! I especially loved that all meals are included in tuition, and the teachers were helpful with potty training. This school is very clean and tidy, and I was very satisfied with the safety precautions they have in place (locked front doors, code required for check-in/out). My son loved the themed classrooms/hallways and the staff were so friendly and kind. My job situation changed soon after my son started at the school but the staff were very understanding and we were so sad to go.

I do also like that there are multiple activity rooms (a gym room, lunch room, art room), so the kids get to line up and go to different areas throughout the day (elementary school prep!).

As a tutor in the afterschool program, I worked with several kids from K-8 grade.

The ones I did meet, however, were dedicated, caring individuals who seemed to have their students best interests at heart. I'm sure the new building will be a welcome place for these students and staff.
