Holly Springs Elementary School

this school changed my confidence for work

I attended Chapel Hill Elementary myself, so enrolling my son here was an easy decision. We LOVE being a Cheetah family!Our son has received a quality education from experienced teachers and staff, and the principal is wonderful. Another big bonus is the very active PTO, which sponsors great activities like the annual fall festival that our family looks forward to every year. The school has a huge focus on literacy that starts in the media center, where they like to say "readers are leaders." That commitment to reading really shows throughout the school. I can't recommend Chapel Hill enough for families in the area.

If you want your kid to be bullied by a bunch of pre frat boys gone wild while the white staff does nothing, then this is the place for you. Don’t expect help with scholarships, colleges or anything other than taking your money if you aren’t in one of their teacher approved cliques.

My child attended this daycare from age 1 to nearly 3. The 1-year old program was great (especially under Ms. Susan). However, our experience in the 2-year-old classroom was disappointing. There was an abrupt classroom change mid-year with no clear communication as to why, and once my child transitioned, daily updates and photos stopped. Behavioral concerns were not proactively communicated by the teacher, and later he was placed in a class led mostly by young, inexperienced staff. Eventually, the center began requesting early pickups due to typical toddler behavior like not napping or following directions. It became clear that the program was not equipped to support age-appropriate challenges. I would recommend this center for infants, but not for older toddlers who require more structured guidance and experienced caregivers.
