Berkeley Heights Elementary School
Zandria Lansdowne: I think Berkeley Heights Elementary Sxhool is the best school my children have every gone to. We move alot and my children have gone to school in PA, MD and now WV. When this school found out my daughter had a problem with her hearing they directed me to organizations that could help me help her. They arranged to have a teacher for her that could speak sign language. They kept me updated and in the loop so I wouldn't feel left out on all the decisions that had to made for up and coming year. The teachers, principal, and all the staff have been very supportive toward my family and my daughter. My child that use to hate school and who thought everyone in school hated her is now loving school and everyone in it. This school has taught my daughter things more than english math and other studies. Berkeley Heights Elementary has tought my daughter that other people can care too. I love this school.
