Longden Elementary School

Teachers are not qualified to teach students, some don’t even have their full-credentials and lack experience. Teachers are also very rude and encourage students to bully others. My son was called a “bad” kid by his teacher and principal because he was impulsive and high energy. He was also used as an example to show others how not to behave, the principal went to his classroom to talk about bad behavior and used my sons name to illustrate who she was referring to. He was only 4yrs old. Peers began bullying him and were awfully mean towards him. They were only showing the sentiment of adults and children are very good at sharing what adults say. This is a school who instead of showing gods love and understanding they do the opposite; staff go on encouraging hostility, anger and hate towards others. The staff at this school only care about their favorites and their own kids attending there. The teachers kids are very well taken care of. And this is noticeable even by other students. Also, if you get along with the principal, you can make it to the circle of “the accepted and liked ones” and your kids will excel here even if they don’t follow the rules. For some reason, you always feel like you have to pay a lot and be the top supporter in order to earn the respect of the principal. If you are struggling they don’t help those in need, forget completing financial aid application, your child will be bullied there for asking. I was so disappointed and disgusted by the amount of politics involved and supported by the administration. It is very disappointing to know that this school lacks respect, love, and understanding of others. If you have a child who is too active and/or with specific needs, adhd, add, or learning needs, please look for another school. This is not the school for you or your child- your child will suffer emotionally. Please don’t support this school.
