Turner Elementary School

I love this school! Ms. Morgan and Mrs. Beadron are the best! They love the kids and know what they are doing to help them they make us (the parents) feel better and more secure with who we leave our children with.

As an alum (class of '99), I can confidently say that any and all success I have experienced in my professional life can be traced back to my time at Council Oak. Not the high school that came after, nor college. This grade school taught me everything I needed to thrive as an adult. For me, the element of Council Oak that resonates strongest is curiosity. Curiosity is not simply encouraged or rewarded at Council Oak, it is treated as a right and a resource for each child, as readily available as food or air. If a student has a question or an interest, they are invited to explore it. They are not discouraged from the occasional intellectual detour, but rather allowed to journey through it. What this produces are intelligent people who are willing to ask questions and seek answers; curious individuals who explore and solve problems. In the workforce, this is an invaluable skill, creating adaptable individuals who can motivate themselves. Send your kids here - they'll be rewarded for it.

I thought that this would be a great school for my kindergartener to attend. However we dealt with bullying in her class. Principal suggested only moving her to the other class, nothing else. I took her out of this school and put her into another private school that we both love. No issues at the other school. This school is un organized and I would not recommend. Principal Walthers had an attitude with me when I called with concerns of this.
