Cumberland Trace Elementary School

They are not very informative to parents in timely manner. Information is either not given at all or not in enough time. They look for ways out of hard situations instead of finding a solution that is fact based instead of owning the problem. If I did not live in this district I would no let my children attend. It's sad there are a few good teachers who deserve a better workplace. In their case I'm glad they are willing to see a child's potential.

Once upon a time a decent school now hosting too many non English speaking children for any child to receive the education their age dictates. You simply can’t teach a class if 5 different languages are required. This is obviously true, but sadly will be looked at as jingoistic or whatever current buzzword they are using now.

Our overall experience was decidedly negative. There is a lot of dysfunction manifesting itself within the school, which stems from leadership both present and past. The culture is such that it provides a hedge of protection for bullies, special interests, and families who are members of the home church, Glendale. My advice for parents looking for a Christian education at ACS: Keep looking. This is not the place. There are healthier, more Christ-like alternatives.
