Norfolk Crossing

Great teachers and the staff is very helpful. If you're looking for the best elementary school in Norfolk Camp Allen is the top 3. You're never going to find that "perfect " school because every school has flaws . I've never had a problem with my kids going here. There is help at the school for all types of Problems you may have. You just have to speak up and ask for help. Respect goes a long way. I personally will never change the decision to send my kiddos here.

My child currently attends this school and he was suspended the second week of school because of his behavior. My son is 5. He is non-verbal and level 3 on the autism spectrum, suffering from mixed receptive-expressive language disorder. He’s been attending school since the age of three. Recently attending Easton pre school. While attending Easton, I’ve seen a tremendously positive change in his behavior, communication, and speaking skills. After leaving Easton and now attending Sewell’s point, he has relapsed back to hitting, throwing objects, and spitting. His IEP and medical records states that he may distribute this behavior if he’s not properly redirected. I’ve been called multiple times to come and pick him up. I’ve also tried to help as much as I can by, providing his favorite toys, learning activities, advice on how to redirect him, and even providing his favorite treats. I’ve asked to have a meeting multiple times and have yet to receive a meeting date and time. I really want to remove him from the school and just home school him. I’m new to this and it’s really tough because I know a school setting is best for his social skills, but the school is not helping much at all. The staff is not that friendly. One time I was called by the teacher and the principal because they could not handle him. I was informed that he knocked the principal’s glasses off her face and he ripped the assistant principal shirt. Upon arriving to the school, the principal saw a scratch on my sons arm and immediately stated that it was self inflicted. The scratch was old and he obtained the scratch from my nephew when they were playing. She automatically ASSUMED my son did that to himself just to keep from being the blame. I understand my son can be a handful at times, but with a patience and a calm tone, he can easily be redirected. I don’t trust that he’s being properly handle and it scares me because he can not tell me what makes him so upset and why he doesn’t enjoy going to school. I don’t recommend this school for special needs children at all.
