Papago School Reviews

There is a very strong push for literacy in this school and very little else. The school is primarily Hispanic with a large ELL population. Kindergarten program is outstanding with teacher who are very talented and caring. For older students there is limited exposure to physical education, music, art and other extra curriculuar activites. The principal is very good and enthusiastic about ensuring childrens success, especially in literacy.

Need to focus on more than just literacy and create a more well rounded program. The focus is on spanish speaking children and literacy.

Papago school is heading in the right direction, but there is not enough parent involvement. Theres also not much extracurricular activities for the younger kids, just upper class.

This school has changed over the years as the neighborhood has changed. I think too much time is spent on spanish speaking students.
