Jennings Elementary School
Great teachers, good academics, and good students. It is a big school, 600 kids, so there are issues but the issues are things that are out-of-the schools control i.e. parental involvement. The gifted program is GREAT, administration truly cares about the students. It is hard trying to keep 600 kids organized but this school does a good job.
