My child transferred to Benjamin Franklin Elementary for 5th grade after experiencing bullying at Audubon Elementary that went unaddressed. She was warmly welcomed by the principal and staff at Benjamin Franklin. She enjoyed participating in the Safety Patrol and other school programs that focused on building community responsibility and care for each other. She had such a good 5th grade year at the school that she frequently said she really wished she had attended the school in her previous grades. She has wonderful memories of her time at Benjamin Franklin and was well prepared for the transition into middle school.

not bad but not horrible. overall ok

I absolutely love this school! Honestly, when I think back to my elementary school days, I wasn't exactly "attached," but Rose Hill? I can't imagine leaving. It feels like home—minus the endless laundry and sibling drama. One of the best things about Rose Hill is the community vibe. The teachers, staff, and students really work to create a supportive, inclusive environment. It’s the kind of place where you’re not just focused on grades but also on making connections, building friendships, and growing as a person.The teachers here are next-level amazing. They're so passionate and genuinely care about helping you succeed. There’s one teacher in particular who throws a talent show and an original play every year. I mean, where else are you going to get a chance to perform in a play written by your teacher and see your classmates show off their secret talents? It’s always a blast, and the creativity that goes into these events is impressive. Honestly, if I had a dollar for every time someone nailed a performance or surprised us with a talent we didn’t know they had, I'd be rich.Now, of course, it's not perfect. I mean, this is still school, not a utopia. Like anywhere, there have been a few fights here and there—drama happens—but hey, that's just part of life at any school. You get a mix of personalities, and sometimes, it’s just a matter of finding the right people to hang out with. But that’s the beauty of Rose Hill—it has everything you need: great teachers, fun events, and a community that has your back (even when you accidentally spill your lunch on the gym floor).Overall, I can’t imagine going anywhere else. Rose Hill is more than just a school; it’s a place where you can be yourself, have fun, and grow. And if you find yourself in the middle of a random drama? Well, at least you'll have a cool talent show to look forward to.
