I have always liked working in schools with at-risk students. You definitely hear the rumors about certain schools having worked in the school system for 14 years like I have. This school is not what you hear about it. It is an excellent school, with devoted faculty and staff, and the students are e
Posted by a principal on 2/3/2018My son has been in the Environ. Science Program here for two years. He really struggled last year because of a lot of absences due to illnesss; but the teachers were caring and the Guidance Counselor, Ms. Constantine, couldn't have been more wonderful and encouraging. He's doing better this year; he
Posted by a community member on 11/18/2015I am a 'teacher' at Lafayette Middle School. Though we do serve the rougher parts of town, this school is a wonderful place. We're currently cracking down on bad behavior and troublesome students. This is all thanks to the new principal. I have experienced nothing but positive things with the staff

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageA teacher that spends the mahority of the day with my child says he is top of his class. Another teacher who only spends 2 hours with my child says she always has an issue. After research, she is under experienced with younger children. The expectations are unrealistic. Being that this school has a large AA demographic I’m concerned that they are misunderstood. This will be my children’s last year.Parent Review4y ago - Myrtle Place Elementary School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis Immersion only school is remarkable. The teachers do so much for the kids. They are reading and writing in French by the end of first grade. Being fluent in another language is such a great gift we get to give our kids and this school makes it possible. We got a new principal last year and she really cares, it shows everyday. I can’t say enough about this wonderful place that makes you feel like you’re a part of a familyParent Review7y ago - J. Wallace James Elementary School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter attended J Wallace James, and I witnessed firsthand how her medical needs were ignored. She had a documented kidney condition with clear instructions not to run or overexert herself, yet she was still forced to. That caused her unnecessary pain and stress. No child should have to fight to have their health respected. J Wallace ls NOT a school that I would recommend.Parent Review1mo ago - First Baptist Christian School
