Mount Vernon Elementary School

at Barnard I would say that the teachers try their hardest to teach these students and make them a smart as they can be from what I seen when I came in the room.Its the children ,not all just some. And some of the students and only a staff member, when she would write the children up she would not hear the children story or try to argue with them. Other then that some children can be disrespectful and rude.

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!

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

This is a really great school. The staff is professional and caring. The facility is impressive and very clean. My grandson has been a student at UECA for 2 years and is performing above grade level. He loves his school and is excited about learning

If your only requirement it's a cheaper " Christian" education, then this is the school for you. However, if it's actually a quality education you seek for your child, I strongly suggest you go elsewhere! Though the teacher. my child had was ok, she lacked the resources and support from administration to truly make a difference. And I also agree with the previous post that everything is so disorganized! To see real improvement, a change is definitely needed staying. at the top!

This school is not fit to educate. Most of the staffs children attend the school and receive preferential treatment. The staff has a condescending attitude and the policies fluctuate based on it. Staff will band together and mistreat students and parents if you question and expect them to be responsive or responsible for your child and the events transpiring while in their care. They simply ignore your requests for information and assistance with anything. The worst place to send your child if you want the best for them. Teachers are on their phones during class time but punish the children for not staying on task. There was a teacher in thigh high boots and a short miniskirt teaching very young children, very unprofessional in my opinion. This school only offers extracurricular activities for 6th grade+. It's supposedly an African centered school but I have yet to see what education is administered in that area. The school should have a complete overhaul from top to bottom as well as customer relations training.
