Bell Grove Place

Bunch of rude staff working on park view elementary school. They are not helpful specially for new kids parents. The receptionist lady always scares me when I hear his voice I always forget why I am calling. My pre-k boy is going to school every day I am trying to contact to teacher she never answered my mail. My son cried every day and don’t want to go to school I want to know so many things that is very stressful but nobody helps me.

Very helpful teachers, they go out of there way to help there students

I am an ex middle school student of Parkview Baptist School. Students are cookie cutter images of each other. Nearly no diversity or creativity. Girlhood was extremely hard here with judgmental students and even teachers.

2.5/5. The people who go to this school, thinks it's the best school in the state. But if you look at the ratings, it is only rated 9th. Their are 3 other school in Baton Rouge that rank better then EHS. Plus this school is limited to what it can offer other then the basic core classes. Look at Catholic, Baton Rouge High, and Lee High, and you will see there is a huge difference. Another concerns is EHS is only focused on money, they charge for everything...ie a parking pass cost $160.00. It is only $125.00 at LSU for 12 month.

I am raising my developmentally delayed grandson. This school was his saving grace. The whole staff knows him and are dedicated to his learning and development. He learns differently and this school and this staff have given him a better life. When he came to Woodlawn from Southdowns PreK center in 2018, he was non-verbal, not potty trained and hurting from three years of neglect. Southdowns PreK center gave him no assistance and basically no real education the time he was there. They stuck him in a bare classroom and labeled him a behavior problem. When I took custody, I called the school board office almost every day until they finally transferred him to Woodlawn. Kathy Kapoulas gave my grandson a new start and a new life, and for that I am eternally grateful to this school. The staff is wonderful! He is in a self-contained class but visits other ancillary and regular classrooms for his individual needs. He also has OT and ST weekly. They make him feel so special. I saw another review that said that if your child is disabled steer clear of this school, so that is why I wrote this review. The staff a Woodlawn do not shy away from children with disabilities, they embrace them!
