I am the mother of a sixth grader and I also feel that the bullying must stop. I send my child to school to learn not to be tortured. This should not be part of a childs education. Where are the rights of the childrens to be protected? This system is poor and am also taking my child out of this school.

So far I've been really pleased with Little Oak. My daughter is in 4th grade and her teachers have been great. I feel that her homework load is appropriate, although I've heard from parents with students in other classes that it is excessive for 4th grade. I feel like my child has had an opportunity

The school does seem very crowded, but considering the circumstances that are beyond their control, I think they do a pretty good job at supervising and allowing the individuality of each student.

This is my son's first year at Little Oak. I contacted the school during the first week because he thrives in an environment of structure. After Hurricane Katrina and a bad experience with a teacher (very unorganized) at his previous school, I wanted to be sure he was placed with a teacher that would

Not even the slightest concern as to what type of teach or environment would help him learn and have a productive year. They wouldn't budge and seemed totally uniterested. I'm relieved we are moving out of the area and won't have to deal with this school for 3 years. The bus system also seems unsafe. Read less

Overall a good school. Duty teachers are either oblivious or not doing their job. I'm a parent that believes in homework to reinforce what was covered in class. Books not allowed to be brought home defeat the purpose of instilling study habits. Some great teachers & some should RETIRE for good. No extra

Little Oak is a wonderful Blue ribbon school. It provides a wonderful environment for the student that really wants to learn. There are numerous extra-curricular activities for those that wish to participate (individual music lessons, art lessons, jump rope, band, chorus), and a great reading program

Most of the teachers are great (of course there are always a few exceptions to the rule!) but for the most part, it is the best middle school in the Slidell section of St. Tammany Parish. Great Sp.Ed. programs and support staff. Everyone is friendly and helpful. Parent participation and number of volunteers is very high. The only thing lacking here is a good sports program. Other than regular PE not much is provided. Read less
