9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe teachers are rude to parents.The 6 grade counselor is awful and should not be counseling anyone. All the staff and principals play pick favorites.All rules do not apply to every child.The bullies are allowed to keep bullying. They use older kids to watch younger kids for teachers to leave the room and building.No one watches the children or ever sees any fight or drugs.The staff complains about bad behavior and fighting and bullying but wont listen to kids or parents concerns. There is no close relationship with children or drive to help them succeed.Parent Review2y ago - Brookville Elementary School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIt is a small school--that being said-it is also a family school--i have no doubt my child is going to be taken care of by not only getting a good education but also the nurturing that they need. We only have one year left and i cant imagine how I will feel when we have to leave.Parent Review10y ago - Gardendale High School
