Saluda River El Reviews

We have moved throughout our school district several timnes throughout the years and have truly found our home at Saluda River. The staff and families are phenomenol. The school is quaint and everyone is very involved with continuing the success of the school.

My son has attended SRAA since Kindergarten and he is now in 3rd grade. The school has a wonderful balance between standardized education and the arts. He has weekly classes in drama, art, music, computer and physical education. After-school programs in the arts (dance, chorus, etc.), martial arts and 'Mad Science' keep each quarter exciting and new. Parent participation is well coordinated and active with both working parents and those who don't work outside the home - mothers and fathers! The staff, from the principal to the custodial staff all know my son's name and greet him warmly every time they see him. He has prospered and bloomed from a very shy child into someone who is both interested and interesting. We love this school and everyone in it!
