Former North Kansas employee Dennis Hernadez was indicted for filming child **** at North KC elementary schools. Briarcliff was listed as one of the schools he subbed at for 4 years. He was also a staff member at Adventure Club, a before and after school program.

My grandson has been bullied by the same kid since he transferred there, with no action being taken against the boy until it blew up. My grandsons mother has called numerous times & I (grandmother) went to the school. Now after no action being taken & the kid hitting my grandson at first with a ball in the head on purpose and when my grandson said he told the kid to quit, the kid hit him in the head, with his fist. For the second time a friend came to his defense and ended in a physical fight. My grandson the victim got suspended for a week. They said he threw punches at the bully but will not allow us to see video and my grandson said he did not throw a punch. He has never been violent, and his friend defended him, and the bully got what he deserved (friend also suspended. I am glad he at least has good friends at the school since he is not being protected by the staff.) No teacher in the area, they were outside. This should have been dealt with swiftly and efficiently the first time it was reported, but they said they never see anything on the videos. Maybe the teachers need to be present and act. It had started in the Art Class when he first transferred to this school, the bully was poking him with a pencil. My grandson reported it to the teacher, again nothing done, so now this is where it has progressed to. I work in a school system and extremely disappointed in the lack of action. They wonder why kids harm themselves and bring weapons so school. When the school is not doing their job that is what happens. They should not be suspended for protecting themselves when they shouldn't have to in the first place.

We have had such a wonderful experience with sending our kids to Topping! The teachers are all really amazing and care so much about their students. The principal is amazing and is very active with helping the children learn, especially during the summer. The Pre-K teachers are Amazing as well and the children learn so much!!

Great school for your kids. I would definitely recommend.
