Orchard Park School

There was an incident April 28, where my grandson injured himself playing basketball. He had lacerations on the upper nose ( between the eyes ) and on the forehead. His teacher did not accompany him to the Main Office to inform them what happened. I just saw my grandson sitting infront of the office. I asked Dana why he was not treated of the wound. Was told that the only call parents and do nothing else. They have no medical facilities here, no doctor, no nurses, no nothing, even a first aid. He was left alone there, until I came in. He was teary eyed. I asked to talked to principal, and was told the same thing. They will only call 911 on life threatening situation. I can't believe they said that. Not even band aid for the wound or ice for the bump to lessen the swelling. Told principal, parents need to know about this things so they will be informed instead beforehand. The county should also know what is going on in this school. Other schools have their own first aid kit for emergency, why they don't have. Am just wondering?

I've been at OPS for 8 years. It's a great community and has become my home

Positive in all aspects including instructional strategies and leadership.

Beautiful school with racial sensitivity issues.Very sad.Middle school science teacher is a bully of the worse kind.Principal turns a blind eye to the issue, leaving the children with no valuable alternatives.Very sad.Beware

After moving to Antioch a year ago I was disappointed with the school that our new house was assigned to. It was on a performance improvement plan so we were able to transfer our kids to Orchard Park. I've been impressed from the day we toured the school. The principal is a wonderful asset to the school. Parents volunteer their time and spend money to help the teachers be able to accomplish the goals set for their classroom. My 4th and 1st graders have teachers who expect them to behave, participate in discussions, and respect their peers. I love that they will continue to go here through middle school. I haven't seen any bullying in my girls age groups and when I press my 4th grader she tells me that it is something that she doesn't have to deal with. Both classroom sizes are at 29, which for a public school seems pretty good. I'm so happy the the registers office found spots for my girls at this school. I'd bet it it the best school in the Antioch School District.
