McCloskey Elementary School

Very good elementary school this has indoor and outdoor activities playgrounds for kids activities.

I love the school is amazing and you Mrs Jones

The only thing good was the principal who was only there for one year. Lots of bullies, they did nothing to help. A bad school.

Terrible school: Grounds are disgusting. The building itself is falling apart. Only a small handful of decent teachers, useless administration staff. Think twice before you send your kids here.

Lots of experiences, and the school musicals and talent shows were fun. Some students nicer than others, but good over all

McCloskey is a very good school! Although, your experience may vary, depending on which teacher you get. Mr. Nyznik, Ms. Keval, and Mr. Chang are pretty good teachers. Also the principle Mrs. Nelms in really nice. Next, the school's musicals are very good. McCloskey spends a lot of effort into those. There are actual mics that you clip on, on stage props such as couches and cardboard backgrounds, spotlights, backstage crew for sounds, and more. Mr. Teng, the school's music teacher is also really dedicated and worked a lot on those plays. However, I'm not sure if he's still there. Also, I've heard the field trips are one of the best out of Delta schools. Grade 7 Camp in Camp Sasamat was really fun, a lot of fun events and games such as face painted capture the flag, canoeing, smores by the campfire, hide and seek at night with flashlights (where you try to find the teachers), and more. We also went snowboarding and skiing in Grade 7 multiple times. In grade 6 we took a Ferry to Victoria and visited the Royal BC Museum and got a tour inside the Parliament buildings. Next, there are big fields surrounding McCloskey, good for playing soccer, capture the flag, and manhunt. It can be pretty fun. However, the playgrounds are all right and kind of old. Although, there is a nice basket-ball court in the front and hoops in the back (the one if the front is nicer). A lot of people and highschoolers play on the court, it's a pretty popular spot.

I went here for two years before transferring to a different school, about a decade and a half ago. My experience was alright, I had good teachers but my complaint was about some of the students. Some were nice while others were rude and had a cliquey vibe to them, I got picked on a lot. There are plenty of schools in the area but I'd honestly choose another one. It's alright but it wasn't the greatest experience.

I love this school!my child goes to it and he loves it.he is so happy,really better than his old private terrible school.they encourage reading and put lots of work on improving children’s literature and mathematics.the grounds are super good and the teachers are very nice.mrs Peterson and mrs Laughlin and mrs cooper are very nice teachers.they have beautiful paintings on walls and they have there own sports team.I am very happy that my child is going to McCloskey elementary and that he is a McCloskey eagle.I highly recommended this school if you are near it.
