Shaw Ave. is one of the best elemantary schools in Valley Stream, Long Island. It is very diverse and also has very, very, good test scores. I am proud of this school and its progress so far

I have a child in this school now and one that has graduated. The academic programs would be much better if they were left to the teachers to teach and not dictated how they should be taught There are not many extracurricular activities but it is only elementary school, there are not normally many at this level. The music and art programs are wonderful thanks to the work put in by those teachers. It's a good school if you can ignore the politics and if you are willing to be involved to ensure your child gets the most out of it.

Kudos to the art and music teachers. Just attend one of their concerts or recitals. As with any other school there are both excellent and average teachers. I don't think enough parental involvement is encouraged. Parents seem to be left on the sidelines. Overall, a good school.
