Town Plot Hill

I graduated from here in 2018. From my memory, the teachers and administrative staff had absolutely zero idea how to handle neurodiverse students. That is a problem seeing as I am autistic. I honestly believe their only disability training was watching Rain Man. The principal seemed to have genuine personal issues with me and other 10 year olds. I would hope they’d have improved since. 2018, but with the general problems I listed, I doubt it.

had a deeply disappointing experience with this school, which led me to remove my child from their Kindergarten program. My son had no issues in Pre-K, he began urinating on himself and became fearful of going to school—clear signs of distress.What’s most troubling is the complete lack of patience and understanding from the staff. I even had to report a teacher for putting their hands on my child—an unacceptable situation no parent should have to face. Since then, it’s been nothing but ongoing issues.I find it suspicious that the school has turned off public reviews, which makes it harder for parents to be informed. I strongly believe I’m not the only parent who has faced these kinds of problems. Every child deserves a safe, supportive learning environment, and unfortunately, that was not our experience here.

My son has been attending this school since Kindergarten, and he is now in 5th grade. This school has definitely gotten better since the new Principal, Hannah Sam. We get a newsletter every Sunday night keeping us informed of what's happening for that week or upcoming events/activities via Parent Square, something that previous principal never did and we were always informed the day of or day before. The school does not tolerate bullying and will notify the parents immediately if something is happening with your child and another student. My son has ADHD, so he is easily distracted and teachers are always looking for ways to keep him focus or will send him to walk something to the office to calm him. Also, I like that this school is very diverse.
