I have found through the past 5 years that Redwood is an exceptional school with a staff for elementary students exceptional.

I do have one complaint which is that the information needed for classes (ex. folders pens glue...what have you) is extremely late in providing the parents the time to shop for articles needed. Some of the families vacation the last week of August through Labor Day Weekend and are not given enough time to shop. I would like to see that Redwood and the other schools in West Orange receive this information in the beginning of August or in that time range.
Thank you for your time and we are looking forward to seeing you in September.
