    My grandson attends Don Brewer and I often volunteer at the school It is a school of pride power and above all kindness. This school does everything possible to help your child exceed in his or her grade level such as help with reading or help with math what ever a child's needs may be on learning they do what they can to get help for the child. My grandson will attend 5th grade there this year and I look forward to another wonderful school year. Oh and did I say that my grandson has been an A B honor roll student since pre-k. Pretty smart huh.

    This is a terrible school and teachers do not care about struggling students.

    Both of my children attended this school. My children and I loved the school. The atmosphere was always friendly and I could always contact the teachers when necessary. The teachers always make sure you are aware of what is going on in the classroom school activities and with your child.

    I think Don Brewer Elementary School is a fantastic institution of learning. I have a son and daughter who attend the 5th grade there. I can see the academic progress the children have made from the first day of class to the present. My children went to a private school in Philadelphia before we moved here in July and the quality of this public school s education is tantamount to the quality of the private school. I commend Dante and Maya's teachers Ms. Peters and Mrs. Reeger; the best bus driver in the world Mrs. Turner Principal Kornblum parents and the many other administrators and employees who work together to provide a rich and caring environment in which these children can learn and be enriched with the necessary basic/intermediate skills needed to achieve in their later academic years.

    I would like to commend Don Brewer for the great teacher quality. Mainly my son's teacher Miss L. Godfrey. She is a great inspiration to my son who is repeating the 3rd grade and was very discouraged. Now he loves school and it shows! Thank you! It's a blessing to be a part of this school. - Corey Williams' mom

    I have been very happy with Don Brewer Elementary. The school is very well equiped with all that is necesary to provide my child with a good education. The faculty have always been very polite and helpful. My child has attended two other Duval County schools but this school is the best by far. I hope that other schools can follow in their example.
