William Tyson Elementary School

We moved to the Airport Heights neighborhood with an open mind about the local neighborhood school. At first the school principal, teachers, and PTA seemed involved and caring. THere are a few caring teachers that are involved and making the best at teaching there. Then we experienced a horrible teacher that allowed students to bully kids in the classroom. This teacher's classroom management style was allowing other kids to bully kids that wer out of line, single kids out and turn the classroom on these kids. It was an horribe learning environment for our child. We reached out the teacher and school principal - neither was willing to help. I can see why parents are leaving this school for charter and choice school options in the district. We are glad we made the move to other schooling options. Now our child is thriving in school and loving it again. Be ware and be involoved if you do send your kids here. There are a teachers that allow and promote bullying at this school. The adminstrative staff will look the other way whiel it happens.

My kids love this school. Teachers are great !

I have two special needs children that attend this school and the staff has truly gone above and beyond in helping accommodate them and support their learning environment.

Have a child there in 3rd grade, teachers are wonderful and very helpful
