7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy child briefly attended this school and the staff was spectacular. We had a good experience there and were sad to leave. The principle was truly caring and the teachers were wonderful and doing the best they could. The large class sizes and budget issues were a drawback. However I think this school was great . The middle school on the other hand, not good.Parent Review12y ago - Barryton Elementary School
