Holmes Elementary School

My son has ADHD, and this school has truly been life-changing for him. He thrives with the structure and consistency of the Franklin program, and we’ve seen tremendous growth in both his academic skills and his confidence. Every staff member he interacts with greets him with genuine care, and he comes home talking about how they make him feel seen and supported. He is excited to go to school every single day—a feeling we never take for granted. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Franklin Downtown and are so grateful for the environment, routines, and relationships that have helped him shine.

All three of my kids have attended/still attending Franklin Accelerated Academy East and this school has always exceeded our expectations. We are so grateful how quickly our kids learned to read, and are excelling in almost all subjects. The teachers are mostly all amazing and care for the students.

Lincoln is a little diamond in the rough. My kids attended another Mesa elementary school and we had a bad experience. We changed to Lincoln and what a difference! Lincoln has an amazing group of teachers, support staff, administrators and students! Everyone wants my kids to succeed! Bullying is not tolerated. I would highly recommend Lincoln to anyone!

My experience with this school was a nightmare, the principal acts like a white savior and the front desk ladies are incredibly incompetent. The teachers are so evil, they don’t care about their safety, and kids with learning disabilities are pushed asides either no real help.

My son has ADHD and the teachers can’t handle it. My son isn’t jumping off walls but sometimes has to be redirected. They’re trying to kick him out because of his disability because “he’s receiving “ a lot of support according to them. Asst. principal ms Grover doesn’t EVER care to hear anything. If my son does something the same as another kid my kid gets in trouble. My son was attacked and the teacher couldn’t help my son so my son had to fight the kid off of him, and of course my son got in trouble for defending himself since he was told by the teacher “ I can’t do anything “. This school is a joke. Mrs Wright & I never really seen Eye to eye but NOW I UNDERSTAND HER WAY OF DISCIPLINE. And what her back. She logically would think &figure stuff out. My son was never depressed or had anxiety. But after this school year he was diagnosed with severe depression and severe anxiety. He always tells me he just wants the teachers to be nicer. The only teacher that knew how to do their job is Mrs. Torres! She’s an amazing teacher!! My sons mentalHealth was non existent! Now these people are putting my son through soo much! Finally making the move! They love picking on kids with learning disabilities and shutting them down! Not ok!!

Teaching is great . The teachers are amazing when they respond to messages or call back on time. Besides that , everything else is HORRIBLE . Ive been taking my children here for three years , and each year safety just gets worse and worse . And noone cares . There is a lady who sits up front on the right side and she called me to verify where my children were suppose to go , and she still sent my 5 yesr old KINDERGARTEN DAUGHTER to the main street . I DO NOT RECOMMEND TAKING YOUR CHILDREN HERE .
