Saddle Oak Club

After multiple ongoing issues with Saddlewood, I have completely lost confidence in the school’s leadership, communication, and management. A recent dismissal incident was handled in an unsafe and unprofessional manner, with staff yelling at parents while students and families were still moving around vehicles. Instead of prioritizing safety and de-escalating the situation, the environment became chaotic and stressful, ultimately leading to my daughter being suspended.I do not agree with the school’s decision and believe the situation was unfairly handled without proper accountability from staff involved. Unfortunately, this was not an isolated incident. Since enrolling my daughter, we have experienced repeated problems with communication, transportation, after-school programs, academic credit concerns, and lack of follow-up from administration.As hardworking parents trying to provide for our family, we expected understanding, support, and professionalism from the school system. Instead, we have often felt dismissed, unheard, and pressured to withdraw our daughter rather than being offered real solutions. At this point, I cannot recommend this school to other families. The lack of organization, accountability, compassion, and effective leadership has created unnecessary stress for both parents and students.

We are so grateful for this school and the incredible teachers who truly go above and beyond for their students. They have created such a caring and supportive environment where my children are encouraged to learn, grow, and build confidence every day.This year they are in Ms. Della’s and Ms. OrnMarie’s class.One thing that means so much to our family is how attentive and considerate they are regarding my children’s food allergies. The staff is always aware, careful, and compassionate, which gives us tremendous peace of mind.Beyond academics, the teachers genuinely help build strong emotional foundations by teaching kindness, confidence, and resilience. It is clear they truly care about each child’s well-being and success. We feel very fortunate to be part of such a wonderful school community.
