William H. Lehman Elementary School

My son was there from kinder all the way thru 5th grade. We went thru 2 principals & various teachers. Overall a good experience with the exception of the PE teacher Ms. Wilson who teaches as if it was boot camp. She doesn't think that not every kid is athletic nor that is an elementary school without any sports. It's merely physical education.In 6 years, I had to talk to the principal at the time regarding the way that she carries out the class.

The school is great for special needs children. The social-emotional support along with the new principal's effort to engage families to attend the school is great. The art and music teacher are amazing. I cannot say the same about the elementary PE teacher or spanish teacher. My child felt targeted by the PE teacher. She doesn't show them any effective ways to get better at physical education. The spanish teacher literally gets to teach them from 1st to 5th grade, and my child did NOT learn anything. The spanish teacher needs to go!

Unfortunately, this school has been a disappointment. Considering the amount of tuition families pay, I expected a clean, well-maintained campus and a high-quality learning environment. Instead, the school felt dirty, rundown, and in need of significant maintenance. The classrooms, building, restrooms (GROSS) and landscaping all appeared neglected, which was surprising given the cost of tuition.Communication between the teachers and parents is non-existent! Grades are never posted on time so you are left clueless and wondering how your child is doing. It honestly just doesn't feel like a real school, education is lacking and teachers seem under qualified. Overall, I don't feel the school provides the value that its tuition suggests. If you're paying private school tuition, I believe there are better options where your child can learn in a cleaner, more welcoming environment with stronger communication. Based on our experience, I would encourage parents to explore other schools before enrolling.

The worst school I have attended to so far. So bad, I had to switch year due to the blatant bullying, not by the students but by the teachers. I was in a horrible mental state, and instead of the school practicing what they preach (to love students) they said I was committing sins. All the teachers have superiority complex. They abuse their power and punish you like an adult, although your brain is still developing. DO NOT GO HERE! After I switched I was happy and thriving.
