Dorval Elementary School

My son loves it! Teachers are nice and friendly! Good school!

Not so impressed. Lots of homework without a clear purpose. Case in point: grade 3 research project in which the research consists of "google" or the library. Students in grade 3 must learn HOW to find information, decide what is relevant and learn to evaluate sources first but none of those skills were taught. They're supposed to figure it out on their own. In addition, they are expected to present their research in a five minute presentation without cue cards or memorizing it. That seems a little much for an eight year old. What is the point to all of it? What are they supposed to learn from all of that? I asked my daughter if after all the time we spent looking for information she would be able to do it on her own for a different topic and she said no. So it all amounted to basically busy work with nothing to show for it. Projects are assigned at every grade level so if you enjoy spending multiple weekends doing nothing but homework and projects send your children here!

Lots on monkeys running around
