We love ORES! Our 3 children have had wonderful teachers and great experiences. The staff is friendly, administration is approachable, and the parents we have encountered seem kind and supportive. 10/10

My son's experience at Oldtown Elementary was absolute horrid. The first that I want to point out is that he has autism. His 2nd grade teacher (not going to name) did nothing but complain the entire year about EVERY SINGLE THING that he did. It got to a point where I could barely hold a job because she would continuously message me about silly issues such as him not giving another child space. Again, he has autism and that is a known thing with autistic kids but obviously, it was never anything malicious. Just pointless complaining. Any time I would try to contact the principal, Mrs. Manring ... she would NEVER attempt to reach out to me or resolve any issues. Anytime I would call to speak to her, she was always in a "meeting" and never returned my calls. So please be aware that that may be an issue if your child goes here. After the 2nd year of my child being at Oldtown and nothing improving, I promptly moved him to a different school where the principal is caring and wants my son to be his best self.

The Special Children's School is a 5-star developmental day program for pre-school that also houses a special needs elementary program K-5, as well as a traditional (regular) kindergarten class. It is part of the Winston-Salem/Forsyth County public school system. Because it has to follow school system policies as well as developmental day center policies, it is a very productive, enriching environment for students.
