Dr. Edward L. Whigham Elementary School

Excelente servicio, excelente escuela y profesores, todo super bien

Very much discrimination and favoritism shown throughout the school, a few staff members have confirmed this about other staff members also. I miss Mrs Mullins so bad, it's just getting worse now. I feel like the teachers hate their jobs and my kid is a burden and to top things off, the children aren't learning. Madam Hudge is amazing but the rest are a mess! Currently searching for other options, simple!

mala escuela aléjate porque los maestros y el personal

I'm not happy with this school this year. The majority of the teachers seemed to be under a lot of pressure and only put their efforts in testing. It's was completely disorganized from the beginning, students were behind in their work. Teachers were being pulled to different grades when the school year had already started! That is horrible administration. Homework did not even correlate with what was being taught in class. I'm spending my summer catching my son up for next year. If it wasn't because I know who his teachers will be next year, I would not keep him in this school. Very disappointed with the spanish class as well. They barely get the class during the year and there is no HW to practice unless the child was placed in the EFL program. The afterschool club activities are not so appealing. They can barely open these clubs because no one enrolls. Music is given so early, it doesn't give a chance for others who can't make it at 7:30am an opportunity to learn an instrument. The office staff and administration are friendly. But administration didn't seem to have good control of this year. I hope they step it up because the school has a lot of potential and a lot of parent support. I'm praying this year will be a lot different, if not I don't see my son finishing in this school.

School went in into decline over the years, current administration is hypocritical, rude and honestly incompetent in some areas. Parents are belittled sometimes and student learning is not seemingly going well (whole classes are failing assessments and there is no real plan it seems to fix that issue). Leadership and higher ups also seem to be doing their best but it is clearly not working. Would not recommend this school if you are expecting actual Christian values or a worthwhile education without distractions and hindrances.

Parents pls stay away from registering your kids in HRSR. Tuition is not the cheapest and they still charge you for everything else. Pizza parties $6 per student, casual dress day $5, in school field trips(yes in school) $10. Mind you with all the tuitions, grants HRSR gets is still not enough to renovate any bathrooms, auditorium/ etc they are still as they were is the 70’s when the school was built. They love to mark you tardy if 1 minute late but make you wait sometimes up to 20-30 minutes after pick up time to get your kids. Events get cancelled rescheduled then cancelled again over and over it’s a disaster. Security is good and teachers are nice. But it does not justify paying for everything as a parent.
