This school is the most parent unfriendly school I have ever been to. There are several guidelines in place that prevent parents from accessing there children and they just generally don't seem to care about how there staff enforcing these guidelines affect not only parent teacher relations but also the trust of child. Additionally this school does not offer school bus transportation nor does it offer an option for car riders. All students must be picked up by their parents in designated lines outside the office. This may not seem like a big deal however when parents have multiple kids to pick up from different designated areas, it can be chaotic. Not to mention, this requires parents (and may times younger siblings and infants) stand outside in extreme weather ontop of the cluster it creates in the parking lot with an entire school work of parents trying to find parking in a parking lot that was simply not designed with this method of school pick up or drop off. Comically enough it set up with a carpool type design that is not being utilized. The only reason why I have not removed my child from this school already is because he truly does enjoy his teacher however if a school employee tries to deny me access to my child again, I will make tough decisions as needed. 10/10 if you have the option to have your child attend another school, i would strongly suggest considering it. The principle is the downfall of this school being great.

Meadows is a wonderful elementary school! My daughter attended Meadows Elementary for three years and I have nothing but positive feedback. The teachers in each grade level (1st-3rd) worked with my child (she is a straight A student) to challenge her and keep her engaged. The teachers have excellent communication with parents and were available to e-mail or meet in person whenever I requested. There are numerous volunteer positions (ranging in very involved to somewhat involved) for parents to get plugged in. Meadows offers several opportunities for the kids/community to connect like: Friday night movies, Fall Fest, book exchanges, run club, garden club, kite/frisbee club, among several others. Overall, a great school to send your child.

Maxdale is a wonderful school with great teachers! My oldest son has attended since he was in Pre-K and is now in 1st grade. Every year has been a positive experience and he continues to learn and grow.

This has to be the worst school ever. Just please put your kids in a charter or private school if you could afford it.

Venable is an amazing school especially for my Sped child. All the teachers and admin work very hard to make sure everyone is successful. They welcome all volunteers and have all sorts of events every month.
