Overall good school with many extracurriculars , structured environment for kids with special needs.

I used to be in this school, now I’m a high school freshman. But this school wasn’t all bad, obviously there were some students who made fun of me and hated me, but some teachers were chill and some weren’t, it kinda just depends what kind of teacher and classmates you get

My son has attended Dixon Rd Elem starting at preschool. Overall, we have had an excellent experience. My son began school with an IEP and the teachers played an intricate part in helping him meet so many milestones that he was behind in. I don't believe I would have been able to get him to where he is now on my own. All of his his teachers from preschool to first grade have been encouraging, loving, and have really made him excited to learn. He loves to go to school. When I accompany him to school events I love that staff members I don't even know will call him by name and say hello. The school really does have a community/family vibe that makes everyone feel seen and supported. They have fun events throughout the year such as dress up days, Christmas Santa days and activities that include family and community. The PTO does a great job supporting teachers but also creating fun things for the kids to enjoy. Dr. Hill (Principal) even gives kids a card and piece of candy on their birthday. A small gesture but my son feels so important each year that she remembers and recognizes him. As with any school there are always areas that could use some improvement such as communication. I sometimes feel a little unsure of things going on around the school. Luckily, the PTO Facebook group is helpful to find information and Dr. Hill sends a weekly newsletter to parents that usually has updates and info on upcoming events. I believe that if you make an effort to be informed and involved you will feel more "in the know". I have a second child about to start at Dixon as well and I actually feel sad thinking about the day we will have to move on to a different school.
