Wellington Elementary School

The principal at Canerun Elementary does not care about the children's educational or emotional well being. Canerun elementary has horrendous test scores and expectations compared to neighboring schools. The principal has several occurances and the board of education has done nothing to interfere. There have been recorded instances of her lieing on parents stating she was threatened or felt intimidated when there was 0 cause and proof of such. I don't recommend Canerun Elementary to anyone.

I went here so take my word for it. If you want to get bullied by teachers and students this place is for you. In first grade my teacher threatened the kids that if they didn't finish the work in time she well call our parents. (She made me and other students cry). In fifth grade my reading teacher made a special needs kid cry then told the kid that the world isn't rainbows and butterflies. How messed up are you to say that to a special needs?

I'm a parent of a current kindergarten student, and I love St Andrew. This was our first year and the open communication between my daughter's teachers and myself is top tier. We use communication folders, emails, and class dojo to exchange information on the go, and her teacher is available for calls if needed. I wasn't here for the old regime, but the new principal Mrs. Cortez is definitely trying to make changes in a good way. She's revamped the pick up schedule to be sure that kids aren't running through the cars avoiding safety issues. She's implementing Coffee with Cortez 1-2 times a month so that parents/guardians can come in and sit with her and let her know what's going on that she may not be aware of. My student doesn't need special education accommodations so I couldn't answer that question.
