My kids love their school, the teachers are phenomenal and staff…

My son went to this school in the 2018/2019 school year. i was invited to get a tour of the building before summer ending. when i walked into the building and the first thing i saw was a rat eating the school pizza.

This school year for my son hasn't been the greatest, to start with his teacher was mostly absent and he was already getting tired of having substituted or ending with another class in a different grade, sometimes with first graters. now his teacher is not coming back there is a substitute teacher that we hope she can stay until the end of the school year.

From my experience as a parent of a student, teachers are rude and far from understanding. Especially the principals. There was an incident where a teacher was misbehaving towards an autistic student, reported to the principals and nothing changed. Seen a review where another parent, just as i, stated where this school is a sink or swim. I truly agree. If you care for your child, do not support or engage in any way with this school. The principals are very rude, blamed my child for their kindness (not figuratively either, literally stated that). The only nice people within this school is the guidance counselor’s, which do not have enough power to do what they want to do but lag behind the principals who limit them.

This is the worst elementary school in Providence. If you’re a black or brown parent with black/brown children keep your child away from there. As a parent you have no voice and no respect. As a student, its even worst. My child was there Nd i have spoken to several parents and they have similar experience. My child was there and over a simple situation the principal said if you’re not happy you can take your kid out. Teachers have no respect for you and even the brown teachers have been brain washed. Long time ago blacks and brown students were accepted and respected but now they don't want them there. If you research you will find out. They were all rude from the top to the bottom.

i love this school I went to here sadly on my 4th grade year I left the school for problems with the school principal but I’ll never forgot the memories I had here thank you for all of your hard work if I can reexperience this I would I will do anything to relive all of it again thanks you -Iker morales

This school absolutely sucks. As a current student, there is no support for kids who have bad mental health. Mental health isn't really a priority in this school though they say it is. The teachers are okay though some have no respect for the students and are unfair to some students based off race. Some teachers even yell at students are don't take in the fact that there are students that don't speak English. Some teachers punish students that don't know English for using their phones when they need it to translate. The teachers can be overall very disrespectful. Family members are not as welcomed and the Health teacher is very ignorant and rude. There is absolutely no protection and or safety in this school. A ton of fights happen and lockdowns happen a lot, along with fire drills. There is no such thing as safety in this school. I don't recommend this school, find a different school instead of this one.
