Neptune Elementary School

bullies, not enough busses, no repercussions for students, talk of politics, kids were told to clean up another teacher's class and missed the bus and didn't get a call had to go to school to find out where my kid was at. I bought my kid school supplies and the teacher passed my kid's stuff to the rest of the class and had to buy more. throughout my child's lunch because my child had peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. sometimes 4 kids per seat on the buses. bus drivers can't deal with the bad children and no one is on the bus to watch the children.

EXCELLENT!!! I feel the kids always come first.

We have only enrolled our son here for two days and I am alarmed by a number of things. First, they make it almost impossible to actually physically get your child to the school. They require students walking to go almost a mile out of their way in order to get to the only walking gate. There is a back gate that is only sometimes open and faces an un-mowed field with knee high grass next to an electrical substation with no signage. They only allow cars to pickup from one side and the traffic backs up so that car drivers take upwards of 60 minutes to pick up their children. They could just easily allow cars and walkers to use both sides with no loss to security and double the effective throughput. On top it all off, they are incredibly rude to new people who are not familiar woth the process and their orientation is substandard.Second, they like to communicate through apps but their apps are invitation-only and require manual intervention from the same staff. The invitation process is supposedly a security feature but it could easily be automated.Third, they have a number limitations for children needing special accommodation. They only allow water without electrolytes and our son has a chronic illness that requires more use of electrolytes to avoud fainting and dizziness. By the second day he was having dizziness spells because he wasn't hydrated and the nurse gave him nothing.Finally, everything is color coded with no consideration to the color-blind, another issue for our son, who has Red-Green color blindness.It is too early for me to comment on the quality of the pedagogy. One hopes it is better than the administration.

My children attend this school. They are getting good grades and scoring Post High School on some subjects on their SAT's. The staff is nice but always very busy, the teachers are good and helpful, they are very good on staying after to tutor & help the children. There is a little problem with under-staffing as far as administration and this contributes to disorganization and the principal is usually running around getting everything done bless her soul. Some of the kids that attend do swear out of the adults ear shot my children have mentioned but it is still alot better than public school.

School has had several changes over last 5 years. However these last two years under the new administration has produced amazing improvements and upgrades in all areas. School feels fresh and energized. Great place to grow both spiritually and academically.

I really enjoyed how welcoming this school has been to our family. My children have thrived in this school. They attended multiple other schools between public & private, this one has by far been the best one attended. My son struggled with being understood in other schools & have shown with his behavior towards school & grades. My son loves the school & his friends & he has been doing amazing in this school A/B honor roll for two years in a row & now my daughters are there too & are having the best experience too. They have so many clubs from sports club, art/ dance & many extra curricular activities. I’m grateful for this school.
