Shields Middle School

My kids attend this school and have been bullied, come home crying more often than not with complaints of kids spitting on them, hitting them, stealing their stuff and more. Kids rarely receive homework or activities to encourage learning, I enrolled my 5 yr old son for kindergarten for his first year of school and within a month of just getting used to his teacher they have “selected” him to be in a new class they created which is a new adjustment for him and should have been done before children started school which just highlights their lack of organization. The school dismissal is a joke often resulting in waiting on a car rider line for 40-50 minutes for your child and apparently the last hour of school your child does not belong to you and you cannot get your child regardless of your emergency. It’s a disgusting way to treat families who have their children enrolled leaving parents feeling hopeless and striping parents of their right unnecessarily. This will be the last year my children are enrolled here.

5/5 – A School That Truly CaresI have two children currently attending Doby Elementary, and I couldn’t be more pleased with our experience. From the moment we enrolled, the teachers and staff have gone above and beyond to make our family feel welcome and supported. Communication is top tier — whether it’s updates from the classroom, school-wide announcements, or personal check-ins, we always feel informed and connected.The dedication of the staff is evident in how much my kids enjoy going to school each day. They’re not just learning; they’re thriving. I’m already looking forward to my youngest joining the Doby family in the future!

They more concerned about their views can't even get their buses to get the kids on time call you and ask you why your kids missing school but buses don't never show and teachers go on months and months of vacation smh my kids didn't start hating school until they went to this one.

This has been one of the best learning experiences our kids have had. The teachers my kids have had, have all been engaging and looking out for my kids. The past reviews are untrue. The admin is great at this school and they do have a lot of activities for families to attend. There is no perfect school or perfect kids. Parent involvement is lacking at this school which helps make the school a better place.

York is an excellent school! Students thrive and teachers are loving and caring towards others. My child loves going to this school.I would 100% recommend!
