Pine Ridge Point

Ive 3 girls and they all went to taylor elementary from first to 5th grade. Some with the same teachers some not!Ive nothing to say bad about that school! We always had good experiences with everyone! I love that my kids grew in an very big diversity of cultures and races/ethnicity because it made an more respectful environment to grow into! I would change nothing for that, it made a big difference on what have become and made so many friends from every countries! Their education has always been in the center of the kids and they always help them to thrive in! Big thank you to taylor elementary!

Many of the ongoing problems at this school appear to come from a lack of strong leadership. Teachers receive very limited guidance beyond daily lesson requirements. There is little meaningful support for teachers, which has led to high staff turnover.As a result, consistency for students is affected. Several other elementary schools are located nearby, and they report higher teacher retention, stronger student satisfaction, and better academic performance. Families may want to carefully compare all local options before enrolling.

Parents should know that strong, stable leadership matters. During my time at Woodward Mill Elementary, I observed exceptionally high staff turnover, which made it difficult to maintain consistency for students and support long-term academic growth. Many talented teachers and specialized staff left, and that kind of instability inevitably affects a school's culture and students' educational experience.In my opinion, Principal Sonia Brown placed a much greater emphasis on the appearance of the school than on instructional leadership, teacher support, and evidence-based educational practices. The building looked beautiful, but effective schools are built on strong leadership, collaboration, and a commitment to teaching and learning.Woodward Mill has dedicated teachers who care deeply about students, and they deserve leadership that values their expertise and fosters an environment where educators want to stay. I hope the district's new leadership under Superintendent Dr. Alexandra Estrella prioritizes accountability, staff retention, and academic excellence so the school can reach its full potential.

We as parents and our 3 kids love this school! Love every teacher, front desk as well as the assistant principal and Dr. Pugh is awesome! The only thing I wish would get better is the school lunch

My child has been attending OMMS for over a year now. The school as well as the falculties are excellent. The only down side is the tuition. I am paying big money for a child who has not entered elementary yet. Otherwise, great!! Highly recommend.
