We are so happy with our choice to have our daughter attend Dixie over our “highly rated” neighborhood school. The diversity and inclusion is incredible, as is the individual attention. My daughter will get a well-rounded education here. This is truly a gem of a school. (Also, despite the stats on G
Posted by a parent on 3/11/2020My son switched to Dixie for the magnet program. His standardized test scores began to drop after starting at Dixie. He also began being bullied by multiple students. He has never been bullied this much in his entire life, combined. He has been teased perpetually and there have been multiple cases o
Posted by a parent on 1/11/2017This is the third year our granddaughter has attended Dixie and during those three years (K,1,2) there has not been one single negative that we or our granddaughter has experienced. The teachers are phenomenal and go way beyond their normal job duties to ensure each child the very best education pos
Posted by a parent on 12/19/2015The teachers really are invested in the children that they work with. Moved from Bowling Green to Lexington last year and my boys teachers went above and beyond their regular responsibilities to help my boys adjust. They still don't like how early they have to go (neither do I), but they do like the

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter has been to a couple schools unfortunately because we had to move a lot, let me start off by saying that this is by far the worst school she has ever been too. The bullying, segregation, and ethics are a huge problem here. Complaints made, but nothing is ever done, even if the kids get physical. The principle has a history of being suspended for three days for saying sexually inappropriate things, 3 days, that’s it. The teachers will not allow for bathroom breaks when needed even when my daughter was struggling with a uti. They are constantly asking for fundraisers and handouts for the other students and they will harass you and email you every single day about the fundraisers. They don’t care about their students, that much is apparent when they let the kids run wild like they do. Recess is not only recess for the kids but the teachers too, they sit and talk with each other instead of watching the kids missing when they bolt each other or get injured. The teacher has been taking things from my daughter, supplies that were provided her to give to the other students, most places consider that theft. 1 star is being generous, do your research on this place.Parent Review6mo ago - Madeline M Breckinridge Elementary School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe teachers are doing their best, but they got a new principle this year and family involvement has dropped to zero. There are no opportunities to meet other families with kids there and the PTA has vanished.Parent Review1y ago - Yates Elementary School
