Greenbriar Elementary School

We had high hopes Sycamore could provide our son with a quality education, and we’re sold on the promise of expertise with handling 2e kids. That expertise was simply not there. They had done only the minimum to implement the accommodation plans we discussed each Fall, but we are aware our child can be trying. We were disappointed, but not every school can serve every child. That was good enough for us until they thought to mail us a yearbook recently for last year. Our son was excited to open the package and see all his former classmates, only to be crestfallen to see that he has been unceremoniously expunged from history. WHY MAIL THE DAMNED BOOK TO US? WHY DO THAT TO A CHILD? It was a totally classless move by a school that thinks far too highly of itself.

Lack of follow through on what’s advertised about the school. Not so warm and welcoming after all unless you fit a non verbalized and proscribed mold. Too much full campus access and lack of supervision as well. Unfortunately a waft of arrogance yet not really a worldly school? Some phenomenal and caring teachers!

Until the new Head of School took over this was an amazing school and it would have received unlimited stars from our family. Since taking over a few years ago the school is on a steady decline and if it weren't for the fact my child was so close to graduation we would have left. The environment is no longer welcoming, the teachers have gotten lazy, the quality of everything right down to the meal service has gotten worse with each year. So sad to see such an amazing, long standing school be destroyed by the new administration.
