Smith Station Freshman Ctr

This school is dangerous for our children and sets them up for drastic failure in future schools. There is so little internal communication; on more than one occasion my son was LOST for over an hour while going to a specialty class (he was hanging out in the library). If you child visits multiple teachers, they don t speak to each other. It s this lack of internal communication that allowed my son to be lost and no one even be alerted. In all fairness, I have run into a couple teachers that seem to really get it but they aren t the primary teacher and again, lack of communication puts my child risk. Educationally, there is little to no structure in the curriculum and even worse communication with parents. I never know what he s working on, never see homework, and can t get answers from the primary teacher. My child's report card states he is doing great, yet his test scores and independent assessments show him way below grade level. I m not one to write poor reviews, in fact I ve written great reviews about a previous school but I feel compelled to share. I wish I had known what we were facing before moving to this area.

This school effectively deals with bullying:My granddaughter would come home crying everyday, of bullying from the children at this school. This school has toxic learning environments that are unsafe for children.

I hate this school because my sister has been bullied byra.metcalf

My son is a 2nd generation Glenwood attendee. Glenwood has done nothing but improved since I attended their 23 years ago. My son loves the school, has made a ton of friends. The teachers are wonderful with the students. The school is family oriented. The only downside is the tuition is a little high but not in comparison to other private schools in our area.
