I am completely unimpressed with communication from the school as a whole, including the administration and PTA. Communications lack basic

In fact, watching it is like seeing a comedy routine. The administration's response is to say you should put your child on the bus. They blame all car pool issues on the physical limitations of the school premises, but there is enormous room for improvement of how the car pool line is handled. Read less

Teasley was once a great school, but it is now riding on its reputation. The principal does not take the concerns of parents into consideration, and is often dismissive. Parental involvement is spotty and has gone way down over past years. In higher grades safety and discipline have become real problems.

My child attended Teasley Elementary and compared to New York Schools they have a long way to go. They are good at telling you what you want to hear. Honestly not up to terms. Please trust in your child and not always what you have been told by its staff. My son was moved numerous of times in this

The teachers are wonderful; they are faced with so many challenges and always rise to the occasion. I couldn t imagine having to tell a parent anything negative about their child. They do it honestly, with compassion and with the children's best interests at heart. I think the behavior cards are a great tool and helps parents with disciplining. There is a heavy parent involvement through the PTA. The ASP program is an excellent supplement for extracurricular activities. All these things make Teasley such a great elementary school. Read less
