Terry Elementary School

Where do I even start with this school. There is no logical organization of pickup or dropoff. Students get 15 minutes to eat breakfast, if they get to school as soon as it opens. Classroom snacks are not allowed like other nearby schools (Don Roberts). Our kids complain about bullying and excessive teasing daily. This school is a waitlist school, and the staff acts as though they despise the students there. There is no reason to register your kids here with LRSD school choice. There are several, much better and more modern schools nearby. The only positive experience we have had there is one of my kids' teachers sending him home with a pair of shoes when his fell apart.

USE CAUTION!! The administration is unstable and changes frequently putting the children in a precarious situation. The board overseeing the school practices "marshmallow leadership" and is run exclusively by parents who never focus on long term strategic matters. Members prefer to scapegoat, let gossip prevail and meet in secret to vote out other members who they don't like. It looks really nice at first glance but if you stay there long enough these ugly issues will surface.....be careful!!

My daughter has been at AR Baptist since K-4 and is graduating this year. I wouldn't want her to be anywhere else. I have friends that have children at some of the other private schools in town and all of them have some of the problems mentioned here. We have had a few teachers we haven't clicked with and a few issues I haven't agreed with, but overall, it is an awesome school. Teachers and parents are very involved. The class sizes are small. It is a challenging curriculum, especially high school. There are sports for every interest and band, but they put very little money and support towards drama. I feel the teachers and administration really care about these kids. If your child just wants to coast through high school and put out any effort, you might not want to invest the money to have tjem here. Our ACT, etc scores are great and every year we beat out a whole host of private schools in the area in a competition where the kids take.an actual final exam in college courses.

Little Rock Montessori School has educated children for over 54 years. We invite you to visit one of our campuses at a time that is convenient for you. We would love to show you what Little Rock Montessori School has to offer your child.

My son is in his 4th year at Miss Selma's. This school is a special place. From the Leadership to the Teachers to the Office Staff this school is a fantastic place for children to learn and grow. Every child is treated with fairness and a commitment to his or her education. Every child is challenged academically but there is a well-round approach to educating each child with opportunities for participation in Art, Music, foreign language, PE - all the things that make for great education. Character building is big part of school and each child is expected to treat their school and each other with respect. I pray every day that my son will be able to finish out his elementary education at Miss Selma's. It is truly a treasure for our state.

Every parent wants the best for their children. I am confident our kids are receiving the very best for our family. We are not wealthy, and our children are not extremely athletic. We are a mixed race family, and we have never felt excluded. The teachers love on our kids so well. We are very thankful for the strong, supportive community at PA!

This is a loving christian school that has a great curriculum and wonderful teachers. If your child would flourish in a smaller class size and you want your child to know and understand christian beliefs then this is the school you have been looking for.

We have had a wonderful experience at CAC. The teachers and the staff are very supportive and love our children! The community we have at this school is such a blessing to our family and not only is my child getting a wonderful education, but he is also learning Christian values as well.
