Hughes L Elementary School

I went here and graduated in 93. I loved it and it had many parents that cared about this place.

Very well rounded teachers and staff! Amazing principal and assistant principal, who always makes sure that things are in tip top shape.

I think this school tries very hard to compete. The teacher seem to be engaged and concerned about the students. I enjoyed helping my children with there excessive homework. I believe in home work so this was a plus for Dunne. The children's safety is very important to the staff as well. They are encouraged to plan for college which leaves lasting affects!

Not well at all. I do no recommend to certain students, although some of the teachers are nice, respective, and teach well. Math and reading are great subjects that are taught well.

Granted these events took place years ago but I feel like it should be spoken about, a 1st grader was placed in cuffs in the school for a fight by a security officer Robert tower hired. Him and his best clown buddy Tyson would always pick on the male students and give special treatment to the female students. Threatening to slap me while I was a student and also threatening to toss me down the stairs. This might seem like I’m salty and I might be but do deeper research on your child’s school. Robert towner seems like a nice guy but he isn’t what so ever. Until a new principal comes in I wouldn’t recommend sending your child to this school

I grew up in Washington Heights. My years at Mt. Vernon I had excellent Teachers who cared about their students. My 3rd grade teacher is why I currently work for a school district in Illinois.

I think Lavizzo is turning out to be a good school. In the past it was horrible. There are some community members who make it tough at the school because they dont check there kids. The school is turning around and it is a better school now.
