Read what parents are saying about Van Buren Community Elementary School
Student bullying is massive in the district. Teachers witness it and do nothing. It's reported to the principal and nothing is done. At least one police report was filed due to visible marks left on one student by another, and the superintendent brushed it off.
Posted by a parent on 5/24/2022Do not send your child to this school! There is nothing but bullying at this school and the teachers and principal do nothing about it. We are moving to get out of this horrible place, home school if you have too.
Posted by a parent on 3/28/2012Budget cuts or poor decision making?? This school flushed itself down the toilet by losing a great principal who could handle 2 schools on 1 salary and then "progressing" to getting a couple mediocre principals on 2 "great" salaries. What are we spending in fuel to keep 3 schools in 3 different town
