EBR needs to do a complete overhaul of the school board as well as teaching staff. The teachers only care about a paycheck and not the students learning ability. I would NOT recommend this school for anyone’s child to attend until something changes.
Posted by a parent on 8/28/2025Typical EBR school, too worried about scores and not focused on actual learning.
Posted by a teacher on 9/24/2017I went to Woodlawn for all four years of high school, and I just graduated in 2014. I can genuinely say that the school got worse and worse as the years went on. The staff is more concerned with students being in proper dress code opposed to focusing their attention on things that really matter, suc

Posted by a community member on 1/5/2014Woodlawn High School has a new principal this year and there has been a bit of staff turn over. I have a child in Gifted and one in "General Population".

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageBunch of rude staff working on park view elementary school. They are not helpful specially for new kids parents. The receptionist lady always scares me when I hear his voice I always forget why I am calling. My pre-k boy is going to school every day I am trying to contact to teacher she never answered my mail. My son cried every day and don’t want to go to school I want to know so many things that is very stressful but nobody helps me.Parent Review1y ago - Shenandoah Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am an ex middle school student of Parkview Baptist School. Students are cookie cutter images of each other. Nearly no diversity or creativity. Girlhood was extremely hard here with judgmental students and even teachers.Other Review5mo ago - Baton Rouge Adventist Christian School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am raising my developmentally delayed grandson. This school was his saving grace. The whole staff knows him and are dedicated to his learning and development. He learns differently and this school and this staff have given him a better life. When he came to Woodlawn from Southdowns PreK center in 2018, he was non-verbal, not potty trained and hurting from three years of neglect. Southdowns PreK center gave him no assistance and basically no real education the time he was there. They stuck him in a bare classroom and labeled him a behavior problem. When I took custody, I called the school board office almost every day until they finally transferred him to Woodlawn. Kathy Kapoulas gave my grandson a new start and a new life, and for that I am eternally grateful to this school. The staff is wonderful! He is in a self-contained class but visits other ancillary and regular classrooms for his individual needs. He also has OT and ST weekly. They make him feel so special. I saw another review that said that if your child is disabled steer clear of this school, so that is why I wrote this review. The staff a Woodlawn do not shy away from children with disabilities, they embrace them!Parent Review3y ago - Bethany Christian School South Campus
