The only reason this school is getting more than one star is because I had 3 teachers who actually cared. However, the principals, assistant principals, etc did not care about most of the students. It was always the students with the popular rich last names who got the upper-hand. I was called a bully multiple times for defending myself. I have gotten in trouble multiple times for defending myself. I did not defend myself by verbally threatening, abusing, assaulting, etc. I just stood my ground and told them to stop messing with me.From the start of each year, nothing was set in place on how the school year would run. It was always talked about, but never enforced. By the first 9-weeks, most teachers were already burnt out because of the way some of these students acted all day, everyday. It's time that Currituck starts expelling these kids instead of just suspending them for a couple of days or throwing them in CCLC for a few weeks or whatever. There are so many bullies who will never learn their lesson, there's no communication with parents, there's no communication with students. Just saying "We'll talk to him/her OR them," is not going to stop the constant bullying they know they can get away with because of who their parents are and things like that. I'm so glad I left this school. I would never allow my children to attend a school like this and I hope the parents who are reading this and considering this school change their minds as well.

Moyock Elementary has a true family-feel! My child has thrived in this school environment.

The administration does not give punishment to those who break the code of conduct repeatedly, but will expel someone for pushing too hard. Buses may be late due to severe shortages of bus drivers and half of the teachers left the school over the summer. Most of the teachers are encouraging and teach well and I personally find most of them engaging.
