All 3 of my children have attended Alderman Road and had great success. My oldest started there in 5th grade and I wish we had moved there sooner! My middle child went from Kindergarten through 5th grade and my youngest is now about to start 1st grade after starting there last year. We have had zero issues and would recommend this school and this community to everyone!

My child for the last two years in middle school has experienced marginalization and stereotypes. Homeroom classes are organized by less desirable kids and less opportunity for labeled kids of lesser political significance. My son requested a new homeroom and was denied. I met with his teachers with no resolutions. The principle offers no solutions. The counselor was sarcastic and answered questions with more questions. They faculty and staff have lied repeatedly to cover their own misdirected answers of why teachers don’t bother to contact parents. Infact not once in two years has two different teams of faculty attempted to contact us. This is all a testament to preferential treatment to prioritize students by politics and athletics. The new science curriculum is “stove piped” and not enhanced by any programs outside the school. We spare no expense in programs to enhance our child and the school curriculum. They offered no programs, in-fact continue to segregate and leverage a child’s desire to improve by marginalizing individual desire to correct mistakes. That is marginalized education and personal vendettas against students. Teachers have consistently presented their personal status and community status to bully parents and students. The understanding of why there are so many private schools is a relevant point of conversation. Public schools are deteriorated by this hybrid form of eduction of pre Covid, Covid, and now a blended digital and lack of in class educational professionals. Teachers have lost control of the physical class rooms and allowed students to present their dominance in the collective educational process. If higher society kids don’t get what they want parents call in a favor and the school bends. If marginalized kids have issues it turns into a hostel classroom. My son’s class is constantly seen kids suspended and sent to military school. Why are all those students in one homeroom class? Why are the requests for good students to transfer to another homeroom denied. Why are the homerooms continued to be kept together from 1st to second semester? Marginalization, the fencing and limitations of lesser kids to be isolated. They might assume that the collective other home rooms to be more successful and call the “bad” homeroom collateral damage???

I'm completely dissatisfied with my child's experience as a special needs student. I don't feel like it's been a positive experience for him. The teachers and administrators haven't shown leadership or respect to him or I.
