Carmel Elementary School

Our daughter has attended since 2020 and she had flourished! Her reading and writing and great and the teachers engage the students to learn by doing things not only regurgitating facts. We are happy that our 2nd daughter will be attending soon!

This school may be fine for neurotypical students but if you have an ND kid, AVOID at all costs. They give mouth service to any accommodations asked for without really supporting your students, and punish your children for the smallest infractions without even bothering to find out if the children understood they were committing an infraction. They won't provide support unless you specifically ask for it, and you'd better know EXACTLY what you need to ask for or you won't get any help at all. Five years here and your children will hate school and believe that they are irredeemable troublemakers after being told how bad they are for five years.

Teacher bullied my special needs son and the office lady is rude and also they dont communicate wrll

Low student support in all areas. Staff and faculty mixed between a couple who care and more that don't. Safety concerns on premises that are hidden from parents. If you're child needs classroom support- this is not the school. You may be lucky enough to get a good teacher who does their best despite admin providing no support. They're disorganized, don't follow through, allow unsafe teachers at the school and bullying. Most of the teachers seem to be unhappy and overwhelmed.

Be very mindful when choosing a school for your children. It’s important to ensure the staff truly supports them and not the opposite. My experience with Jessica Appleyard as a principal has been incredibly disappointing. This experience has been heartbreaking and frustrating. The lack of compassion, transparency, and genuine care for my son’s well-being has been deeply disappointing. Parents, think carefully before sending your child here.

I have multiple students who attended from kindergarten all the way through and graduated from Shiloh Hills Christian. They received an excellent education preparing them for acceptance into competitive colleges. There was academic rigor and I love that they were known like family. That is one of the strengths of this school. Students are genuinely loved, cared for, challenged, and celebrated. I would highly recommend Shiloh to perspective families.
