Hicks Elementary School

They take away your OWN BOUGHT ITEMS and say maybe tomorrow you'll get it back what type of staff is that

The school was ok when my kids were younger, the teachers were supportive and the classrooms felts safe. Now that they are older we deal with bullying issues constantly and I do not see where the kids are being reprimanded because they continue to bully other kids. The environment feels like the teachers are stressed out and do not want to be there. Now there are a few teachers that are really good at what they do but not enough for me to recommend the school as a whole. Some of the teachers are really rude and do not know how to talk to children in a way that is not demeaning. I do not think this is an isolated issue that is unique to Flat Shoals. The middle schools in Conyers have some of the same issues. I am truly considering an affordable private school option.

This school needs a lot of help in the leadership department. It seems as though things are always half done. The staff is constantly mis informed and the receptionist is regularly unaware of the logistics in regards to the school. The financial person seems to always have a chip on her shoulder. The school is so run down that she should be happy to take my payment. The teachers and staff are all dressed like they are on their way to the local Walmart. Bottom line is this school has a lot of potential but they just need to have a complete overhaul in the leadership department. They could also use a visit from extreme makeover to give the school a fresh new look. Make the school look like a school. My child's teacher is awesome and I give her 5 stars, but I could only speak for her because I do not know the other teachers. Due to the poor quality of the school and staff I will not be enrolling my child at Victory next year.

Excellent teachers that know each student's strengths and limitations and they build upon both. Their students know that they care about them as people and about their success in the future..
