Liberty Elementary School

I’ve been hesitant to write this review, but feel it could help those considering this school for their family. Our experience was a mixed bag. The teacher my son had was great, so no complaints there. I and my family took issue with the behavior (or lack there of) of the student population. The amount of focus the staff at Sixes had to put on behavior was insane. They should instead be focused on teaching/learning but that wasn’t possible to due to so many kids acting out and misbehaving. We have since sold our home in Bridgemill and moved to another attendance zone within Cherokee and it is night and day. My kid came home from his first day at his new school and said he could actually hear his teacher and all the other kids in his class were kind and respectful throughout the day. He was actually able to learn!

This School is TOP TIER. The staff and teachers go above and beyond when it come to our children. When my eldest son was in 1st grade he left his coat at school one Friday afternoon. It was a 3 day weekend and we were to have very cold weather in our area. His teacher, after working ALLLL day and still having 2 elementary age kids of her own drove to our house and dropped of his coat!! Above and Beyond. My youngest who is in kindergarten come home crying his 1st day of school b/c he had an "accident". He said he was afraid to ask his teacher to go to the bathroom because she was busy with another student. I sent her a message just lettings her know what happened so she could be in the loop. She called that same afternoon and wanted to talked to him, she reassured my little guy that she's never too busy to help him and that she was so excited to have him in her class. ABOVE and BEYOND. These acts of kindness are just a few on the long list of examples I have where the Knox teachers and staff have shown that they Truly care and love what they do.

I am currently teaching a child who came from many successful years at AHA. His math background is woefully inadequate. His prerequisite skills are severly lacking. I don't know what they are teaching in high school math there, but their public school counterparts are far surpassing what is being done there.
