Hibernia

A teacher by the name of myers threatened 2 students for sitting next to each other for the 6th grade end of year party. She told them that if they didn’t sit with a chair between them, that she would start a rumor that they were kissing. That if they tried to deny it, no one would believe them and everyone would believe her because she’s a teacher. Principal does nothing to rein in teachers disgusting behavior and threats. Do not send your children here. Some of the teachers are out of control because they believe they are untouchable because the principal does nothing to hold them accountable.

This school is amazing!! The teachers and staff sincerely care about the students. Couldn’t have asked for a better education system. My daughter really loves this school.

This school is amazing and we are continually impressed with the teachers and administrators who put in the extra mile to educate our children.

This is our daughter’s first year here after almost four years on the waitlist and she is finishing up fourth grade. We have had a wonderful experience so far. The beginning was rocky with her teacher, but administration took the parents’ concerns seriously and a new teacher took over. Our daughter has had a wonderful year since, maintaining straight As, and absolutely loving school. I see comments about administration not being transparent or not listening, and we have had the polar opposite experience. Mrs. McCullough promptly responded when I emailed her about something; Mrs. Melquist called me to follow up on a concern. Our couple of admin experienced have been very solid. In addition, our daughter’s teacher, Mrs. Weaver, immediately nips bullying wherever she sees it. She discusses virtues, she assigns consequences, and she moves their desks so they don’t get cliquey. She’s also an excellent teacher who breaks down concepts in a way they understand, and offers for students to write peer conflicts or school issues down when they don’t feel comfortable verbalizing them. There are also so many opportunities to volunteer, and we love having the ability to come eat lunch with our daughter each week. I’m a little worried about upper school based on the reviews here, but based on what I’ve seen so far, I do have faith that admin will continue to address issues and turn over staff who deviate from the school virtues or do not have the students’ best interests for learning at heart.
