Vance Elementary School 183 Vance Street, New Britain, CT 06052

"I was just reminiscing about attending Vance when I was starting school for the first time! So glad to read all the comments and see that it is still the same awesome school that i graduated from! Highly recommend it, I still remember peeing my pants and nurse Garcia helping me out! Cant believe she's still helping the rest of the kids! Mr. Lato (the gym teacher) was also amazing and is still there! I hope they are still playing lasers!! Vance is the best."

"This school goes above and beyond for my 3rd grader! A very special boy who recieves services for his special autistic needs. Everyone in the school from the lovely lunch ladies to the special education teacher shows my guy so much love and support! And the school nurse, Mrs Garcia is beyond AMAZING. She is everything children need and so much more! Arlene Martin, his special education teacher was put on this earth to help children learn and grow and it shows in everything she does. She is one of those teachers who gives such time, effort and love, I really don't know how she does it! And always with patience and a smile on her face. And I also must mention Miss Norma and Miss Rosa, the smiling faces that greet everyone at the front desk. Those ladies are forever busy, but somehow seem to know each child and everything about them! They also have big big patience for "certain" parents, who call almost daily. Yes, I am one of them. Lol. Thank u vance school, whoever does the hiring here needs a big raise! Thank u from the heart and keep up the great work! This is one very special school !"

"I had 4 children go to vance.2 graduated yay.2 are still there.i have no complaints about this school.just dont like 1 teacher.my daughter stole her cell phone because it was bejeweled. Now i know my 6 year old at the time shouldnt have stolen.but she then punished my daughter by putting her coat and bookbag next to the garbage pail outside her classroom for a week.until the little sister told me what was going on.i contactrd the school outraged and i guess the school handled it the best they could.in my eyes she should have been fired.other than that.never had a bad experience there.and i had 4 that went there.remember that"

"They are the best school for my son he always says is the best school he ever been to. We chest came from new York and he always says that if he never move all the things he was gonna miss. For every kid in next year going to school I recommended to go to this amazing school"
