They will strip search your children. Looknit up. Its all over the news. They poor girl. Just imagine if that was your daughter.

Would not recommend this school. I’ve had a few issues with Sherwood school. I thought it would get better but it didn’t. Office is not good at communicating with teachers. They never seem to know what’s going on. Which this scares me if there were to be an intruder or an emergency at the school. Head start teachers are very negative and seem to be giving up. A few times a teacher has posted the wrong info on the Dojo app. Leaving all the parents confused. Teacher yells commands at her classroom aides. I’ve heard from other parents Sherwood’s staff was difficult and now I’m a believer.

Great school with excellent teachers! Kids are able to make friends easily.

I've been trying to get my daughter tested and into an IEP program but I keep getting the run around. The teachers don't stay in communication with parents. There is no support. They are only teaching for tests and not to help the students learn.I'm looking for alternatives so my daughter doesn't have to return next school year. The chaperones they have on the busses are rude and on a power trip. I don't feel save having my daughter ride the bus home. I absolutely don't recommend this school.

Ive had so many issues with my kids being bullied screamed at by the teachers then get mad when I dont want my kids going here..... my daughters hair was cut twice here by her peers. And the teachers response was she did it herself.... I had kids in kindergarden 2nd grade and 6th grade none of my kids liked it their responses are ridiculous. And from what we have been through I wouldnt recommend sending your kids here. My children complained about their teachers not listening one teacher would scream most of the day my daughter said her head hurt when she got home also my daughter never has accidents but 3 times she ended up having accidents on the bus because they refused her to go to the bathroom. And she would have to hold it and couldn't. Ive been beyond disappointed with this school also charge me 150 just for them to ride the bus because we are 1.9 miles out from the school im a single mom of 4 and pay everything on my own can not afford that. Then they want to try to get me introuble with the law for them missing school..... also they would come home hungry everyday because they were not feeding them enough while at school then tried to blame me for it. Seriously no accountability whatsoever. But us parents are bad for not wanting our kids treated this way. I will homeschooling my children from now on....

This is a very prejudice school. If your child doesn't fit into their 'ideal child' mold, they will bully your child more then the kids do. If I hadn't seen it first hand I wouldn't have believed it and I don't have school aged children.

Horrible school they need help and kids are getting bullied
