My children started at Weeden in the last 9 weeks of school in their first grade year and I was very disappointed in that their academics were so far behind the school they came from in south Alabama. Also, during their second grade year I had a lot of trouble with the teachers taking the bulling of
Posted by a parent on 12/31/2016I love that there is diversity in this school. It helps children to grow up understanding how other people live and how other people want to be treated. :) Awesome that there is only about 13 students to each teacher, also.
Posted by a community member on 8/6/2013Weeden is a great school with good academic programs. I believe you should send your students here.
Posted by a community member on 8/17/2012I think Weeden is a fine school and that the test scores do not accurately represent the quality of teachers or curriculum at the school. There is a diverse combination of students at the school from various backgrounds and possibilty that many of them might not try as hard as they should when testi

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis is a beautiful modern up to date school. I have only one concern. I have seen children sitting n the side of the parking lot in the back of the school by the back playground as cars pass by next to them, during this past school year. This seems dangerous.Other Review9y ago - Harlan Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe love it! It is wonderful school. We are new and everyone has been very helpful and welcoming. I wondered if not being catholic would be a problem and it has not been an issue.

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAs a former student I can Mars Hill is too far behind academically in math and science to prepare students for the ACT or college. Also, the staff and students expect you to conform to their church of christ religious standards. They have radical conservative views on women. The girls were shown a video in high school were college aged boys talked about how they would never marry a women who wasn't a virgin. They then passed around a purity contract and all the girls that signed it were put on a board outside the office. The boys harassed the girls that did not sign. As an adult, I know this was an emotionally abusive tactic and would be outraged if my daughter was treated this way.Student Review7y ago - Florence Christian Academy

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter was being bullied relentlessly at a public school. After many meetings with her teachers and the vice-principal, I decided to pull her out and try Riverhill School. I was immediately impressed by the size of the school and how kind the entire staff is. But, once she settled in to second grade, I was seeing the confidence my child once had start to come back. She is now excited about going to school for learning and seeing her friends. Bullying is not tolerated in the least. But, it’s so much more than that. Riverhill School has the feeling of Family. I know my child is loved and that means everything to me.Parent Review8y ago
