Wedgewood Elementary School

They have targeted my child as a problem child when she’s brand new to the school and is being bullied. She sticks up for herself and others and is still singled out. She’s was in 2nd grade and finished her last 3 months there and was crying before school everyday. Her teacher was rude to her and does not handle problems well. One of the faculty members hit my vehicle multiple times because my daughter was wearing shorts a smidge too short for dress down day, i simple phone call to get new clothes would have sufficed.

Very helpful teachers, they go out of there way to help there students

My child attended this school for 3 years. It's been a D rated school the whole time. Nothing has improved. There are no activities to motivate the students. No field trips. The so called field day was terrible. Communication is terrible. I send emails asking questions about my child's progress and there are no responses. There's no PTO. The teachers don't even seem to be motivated. For teacher appreciation week, I sent something for each of my child's teacher. My child was the only child in her class to give them something. One of the days she had given a candy jar to the principal. She opened the jar, took out the candy that she wanted and gave it back to my child. I thought that was so disgusting and unappreciative of her. If my child had to attend another year there, I would take advantage of the School Choice and move her somewhere else. I just don't understand why nothing is done to improve this school. I realize it takes more than the teachers. Parents have to be involved as well. This school and others like it are failing our students.

This is a wonderful inclusive and diverse school. We have loved our time at STM.

2.5/5. The people who go to this school, thinks it's the best school in the state. But if you look at the ratings, it is only rated 9th. Their are 3 other school in Baton Rouge that rank better then EHS. Plus this school is limited to what it can offer other then the basic core classes. Look at Catholic, Baton Rouge High, and Lee High, and you will see there is a huge difference. Another concerns is EHS is only focused on money, they charge for everything...ie a parking pass cost $160.00. It is only $125.00 at LSU for 12 month.
