Midland Park

As a parent of two children attending this school I am happy to say this will be the last year they are there. Faculty has zero control over what is going on at this school. I walked in to my youngest child’s class during the national anthem to see kids wandering about and sitting not paying any attention.My oldest daughter comes home everyday and tells me about a girl in her class being called the R word over and over and the teacher does NOTHING. The principals are just as useless in assisting with anything going on in the school and constantly gloss over any concerns you may have.

Trying to get my kids in this school has been a head ache. Not only because of my husband transfer but because of the admin by the name of Teresa. She is very rude. She told me that they were not accepting but i fpund out they were. And sinxe i went over her head she has been giving me her nasty energy ever since. My kids have attended Hunley Park for a little less than 2 months and my daughter has been in a fight and been ganged at the school. And her teacher did not call me to inform me about either incidents. I went to the school to talk to the principle and Teresa says they are busy and I could have a seat because it will be a while and another parent is waiting for him as well. She said she will let him know about me as well. So went to go sit down and the principal finally comes in and said hello to the other parent and proceeded to walk with the parent in a conference room. I sat and waited for Teresa to let him know there was another parent but she didnt. He finished up with the other parent and she still didn't get up to tell him anything. She just sat at the desk and played busy. If you are not able to multi task then your in the wrong profession. I spoke with the principal or assistant principal and he was good addressing my concerns. But having rude administration and teachers who think it is not important to call about an incident is not okay.

If you’re looking for a school where your child will constantly be distracted by other students with behavioral issues and are spending more time throughout the day stopping to deal with the outbursts then are learning this is your place! It’s actually extremely sad. There are a lot of teachers that I’m sure actually care about the children but this school is a disaster. Charleston County School districts progressive disciplinary plan is a joke. Children kick other children and get away with ridiculous behavior and nothing is done. At what point do behavioral children ( with an IEP or not ) hinder the learning of every other child. This entire district is a joke and they need to start being held accountable.Military families beware. If you have the option to send elsewhere I would highly recommend it.

My daughter goes to kindergarten here. The Principal and teachers are great.

The traditional, faith based approach to education is refreshing and comforting. Our children have flourished in an environment where they feel safe and loved. Not only are our children learning, but they enjoy learning. The school helps teach not only academics, but also compassion and kindness towards others. We could not be more pleased with the DRS.

Excellent academics! Great fine arts program and sports program.
