Difficult because of the number of broken bones, bruises, and contusions, due to bullying/assault/battery that goes without consequences. There are more teachers in this school with advanced degrees in their subject matter than in most schools. As a parent, I would support stronger rules and expectations. My "expectation" of the school would be hardline discipline for repeat students who never get consequences, support of fine teachers, and backing by parents and students of the administration making a full, safe, quiet(in the classroom) educational environment where all children can advance academically.

Teachers have limited resources, however work hard to close gaps with high energy and effort. It’s 100% SOL focused, process discipline with very little free learning. There’s severe bullying tolerance with teachers lacking effective practices of addressing it. Administrative leadership at this school is top end of terrible, very friendly but if you have any issue he will openly blame a teacher and not take any ownership in getting it resolved. Lastly don’t ever ask the bookkeeper : secretary for support, she has zero follow up skills and shows lack of respect to everyone on the staff.

Definitely do not feel the school is safe. Staff in the front office yelling at my child in front of me in a very disrespectful tone. I was appalled by the unprofessional behavior by administration. Hopefully, there will be more protocols with respect to parents and staff in the near future. This school is newer but the school culture is low.

We have nothing but a great experience with. Central Elementary. We moved from a different school and the change was absolutely positive! My son’s excited to go to school and learn new things! The teacher challenges him which hasn’t getting before. When he knows what they are learning she makes work more challenging for him. So he is learning. The teacher has been in contact with parents about what’s going on. We get newsletters and reports. I could not be more happy with the school and the teachers! My only complaint would be the way the second graders have to switch schools. But that’s ok! I just hope the next school is as amazing as Central is!
