Heritage Elementary School

We have been at HGE for a little over a year, our kid is in 3rd grade now. We absolutely love the teachers we had thus far and the education and caring our kid is receiving. The principal, assistant principal, and other staff at the school are great too. The PTA is very involved, and the school has great activities during class and after hours. I recommend to anyone to join HGE!

I feel that this school pushes gender identity to a unhealthy point and I find it not right for very young children

We enrolled our daughter December 2018 through March 2020. We were in the midst of the pandemic and decided to pull our daughter out but continued to pay tuition to keep her spot. After a few months we stopped paying the tuition and kept our daughter home until September 2021 with a nanny. September 2021 we enrolled her back into Primrose Crosscreek and it was very evident that the drop off , pick up system changed. What was more evident was the once courteous, kind and responsive directors we once knew changed as well. It was obvious that they stopped caring about our child. After many calls and an in person conversation with the director our concerns were ignored. Most recently we spoke to the director Mrs. Ellis and requested to withdraw our daughter for 3 weeks. Mrs. Ellis assured us and confirmed that our daughter would be able to rejoin her class on May 31, 2022 so she can finish up her last year here. This week we received an email stating there is no space for our daughter. We called her to question her email and reminded her of her verbal confirmation that she would have a space on 5/31/22. She acknowledged that she told us yes she’ll have her space. But then says her email stating there’s a wait list stands. Very contradictory and very telling of the directors lack of integrity and character that their word don’t stand. Admittedly we have not been happy with this school but was willing to keep our daughter here for her last year as she’s made friends.

Bayaan Academy has faced ongoing concerns from several families regarding its leadership, communication practices, and approach to student well-being. While the school promotes strong Islamic values and academic goals, some parents have expressed disappointment over how serious matters particularly those involving student safety and emotional support were handled. Issues such as lack of transparency, administrative retaliation, and failure to follow established policies have led some to question the school’s accountability and professionalism. Families seeking a nurturing, responsive environment are encouraged to carefully evaluate whether Bayaan aligns with their expectations for both education and care.
