Woodward North Elementary School

There's a lot of unaddressed bullying in this school. The children who hit and hurt others have no consequences, except for a call home.No follow up with the bullies, they just keep bullying the next child. Concerns are not taken seriously. Some of the teachers will openly speak negatively about their class or children to other parents; as a previous teacher, this should never be happening. It's apparent where the bullying & stress is stemming from. It's is a high stress environment, teachers are not sincere or welcoming.

I have two kids here and they are both thriving. The teachers are very responsive and everyone is kind. It feels that they are getting a private school education with a public school price tag.

Not an easy transition when we moved towards the end of elementary school, my son struggled to adapt to the new environment both socially and academically, with little functional support from the school. We did arrive 1 year post COVID so that may have had something to do with it. As a parent, I feel the school is excellent. The front desk staff is wonderful, the teachers are fantastic and the rest of the staff are kind. My son struggled but he enjoyed the school. Heavy academic focus, preferential treatent to those with high standardized test scores and in TAG (Talented and Gifted). The school has many fun family nights and after school activiteis for families to be invovled.
