Cavett Elementary School

Principal only cares about her image. Not the actual students and their learning. There is zero social/emotional support for students.

My son is an employee at this school. He is proud of the leadership and the dedicated work of the excellent teachers who work there. This year there is much school spirit and assemblies to honor the students' achievements and celebrate the various holidays in the school year. Most of all, he is proud of the positive morale that is displayed by all members of the student body, staff, and parents. This school would greatly benefit from tax credit contributions to enhance the school playground, provide more student supplies, and add to the extracurricular activities.

My daughter has been to several different schools my daughter and myself really love this school. It has a good environment and the teacher are friendly and very involved with the students.

After 4 years of my kids attending pre-k - 2nd grade I made a decision to pull them after 5 days starting the 24/25 school year. This year my daughter started Kindergarten. There is 1 kindergarten teacher for the whole school with at least 25/30 students and 2 aids mind you there on the very elder side. My daughter expressed how they would be put on time out even though they were not doing anything wrong and she did not know why. My daughter is no trouble if that she is very shy. With this student ratio to teacher how are kids suppose to learn? My son started second grade he had expressed that he misplaced his math book and the teacher had yelled at him about it. He also had had a bathroom accident within the first day couple days of school. From pre k -1st grade my son has never had an accident at school nor public. But for him to be in 2nd grade and have one. Turns out this teacher had ignored his asking/raising his hand to use the bathroom. This teacher is also elder. If teachers do not have the patience to teach kids in elementary level they should leave the profession or teach older kids. Elementary kids need teachers who are going to have there best interest and teach kids in any shape or form! Majority of the staff loved my kids from the start. But since we had obtained a new principal Mrs Lohn a lot of teachers have left this school good teachers at that because of the animosity leaving them to hire who ever they can get! This is not a friendly community school little to no parent involvement. My son would miss so many days of school last year and we didn’t know why until he got the courage to tell us what was going on. There is bullying older kids would verbally abuse him. There is no character traits at this school. This is a sad cold school. There is no joy upon arriving little to no events and if there is it’s very sad no effort is given. Every event every assembly the principal is no where to be found not one introduction from her and you would expect her if that is her school. Please don’t put your child here especially special Ed kids please don’t put your child here! From a teacher who worked there told me not to put my special needs child there and I never did and I’m glad I didn’t. It’s awful how they treat them as I’ve seen yelling at them pulling them there is no socializing with the kids when they are outside playing they are alone while the teacher and aids sit on benches talking. Please do your research!

This school is great if you want your child to be an artist and marry well. Otherwise, if you want your child to learn, read, do math, turn in homework, have a real sense of "responsibility and education"...it probably isn't the place. Being fair, the staff seem very concerned about the children and it is a very "free/artsy" environment. However, this comes at the expense of actually having right/wrong/accountability/high academic standards.
