Partee Elementary School

The best thing I did was withdraw my child from this school.

This school has changed tremendously since the last principal left. Most of the staff not all, but a significant portion are extremely rude, and as an African American woman, the attitude and dismissiveness I have experienced from several staff members is absolutely unacceptable. I have three children who have all attended Norton, and I have lived in Snellville for more than 15 years. Over time, I have seen both the area and some of the schools decline. Concerns are often left unanswered or unresolved unless you take further action, such as reaching out to the district.The school also lacks diversity among staff, and there should be a stronger effort to reflect and represent the student population.At this point, I am planning to move by 2027, as I am done with the schools in this area. I strongly encourage leadership to either provide additional coaching for staff or consider necessary changes where appropriate. These children are our future and deserve better examples and a more respectful, responsive environment.

For me Shiloh elementary school is the place for my son . Great teamwork and communication between teachers and parents is excellent.

This is a joke of an elementary school starting from the principal Miss Tamika Muhammad on down. They cannot protect the smallest children in their school from vicious attacks of bullying. Be it from a substitute teacher or students who they cannot seem to get control on or corral and my children's tenure of just under a year. They have been engaged in over 15 acts of violence and bullying by teachers and students. It's a joke to say that these people can safely watch in the 10 years children's basic needs, let alone provide the education they need to succeed and go forward. I sincerely hope at this school has a safety audit and is seriously reviewed from the top down. This is an embarrassment and it's staying on DeKalb county to have a school operated in this tenure. Please get some help

The enrollment process needs to be better l. I don’t understand the purpose of online and in person enrollment to bring the same documentation

Review for Excellence MontessoriMy child spent about a year in the elementary program at Excellence Montessori, the worst school experience we’ve ever had. The elementary classroom combines all grade levels together and has no structure. The teacher had no control over the students, and when I sat in to observe after a semester, what I witnessed was pure chaos. The children knew the teacher had no authority, and there was no real learning environment at all.Bullying was also a serious problem. My child reported it repeatedly, and despite my many emails and meetings with the teachers, nothing was ever done. The lack of action and accountability was unacceptable.The school itself is another red flag. It is very dirty, disorganized, and poorly maintained. When you walk in, look behind the front desk, It is nasty and unkempt, and the kitchen is so unsanitary. It’s appalling that a school operates under such conditions.Other parents whose children were in the daycare program had similar complaints about poor supervision, lack of structure, and overall neglect. Clearly, these issues run across all levels of the school. With approximately 10 children in the entire elementary program, it’s obvious many families have already pulled their kids out.Excellence Montessori is unsafe, unclean, and unstructured. I strongly urge parents to look elsewhere.

Worse school ever. Some teachers are horrible! I do not recommend this school.
