Joseph Martin Elementary School

Absolute worst school! We were re-zoned to the school, taking us from a great teacher and then giving us someone who was a teachers aid out of retirement instead of a real teacher. Even with that she was far better than the teacher assigned halfway through the year. My child absolutely hated going here to the point where they wouldn’t get out of the car in the morning. The teachers are bullies in the school has nothing to offer academically for children. With home life changes I was finally able to pull my child out and homeschool them for the remainder of the year because of how terrible the staff was at the school. Teachers have no regard for student safety, especially in the carpool lines where they are texting on their phones or not present at all. Don’t bother trying to talk with the principal because it’s alarming how much she doesn’t know about her own school and has no answers. Do what you can to avoid.

I enrolled my child at First Presbyterian Christian Academy with the expectation of providing them with a nurturing and inclusive learning environment. However, my experience has been deeply disappointing. I have observed concerning instances of racial insensitivity and discrimination within the school community. Additionally, I was shocked and appalled when the school administration suggested putting my three-year-old child on probation, a decision that seemed unjust and disproportionate. It’s disheartening to witness such behavior from an institution that should prioritize the well-being and development of all its students. I hope the school takes meaningful steps to address these issues and foster a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion.”
