Cherokee Park Elementary School

The entire staff are very happy to help with the students after school work by guiding them in off hours of class study. The teachers are open to extra credit for students when needed because of family troubles. The entire school involvement with their students in completely learning motivated.

The principal has demonstrated a lack of concern for student safety. The designated bus stops pose significant safety risks to students, and despite multiple complaints, the principal has shown no regard for the ongoing dangers faced by those in their care.

Caring and dedicated staff. Many willing to go extra miles to reach students and connect with the community.

My child was is in kindergarten and was bullied by a third grader to the point of having a swollen and busted lip with a tooth print and I had pictures and everything, no one notified me because they weren't paying attention or even called me. I was at the school the next day I called first they just left me on hold, so I talked to the principal Ms. Adams and she said she would handle it and call me back once she talked to the child well I never heard from her. I called and spoke with the staff they said she was busy. I left messages with them for her and left messages on her voicemail because after that she never answered my call. Well 2 weeks later my child was in her office for the first time because now she's trying to do what the other kids are doing to make friends, being new to the school. So she (Ms.. Adams) calls me so I addressed that she never called me back and questioned about it because the child that punched my child was at school and on the bus the next day so according to the hand book she did not do any steps of discipline. Well she simply changed the subject to my child and said she could follow the hand book with my child as a threat and I told her as a assistant principal I agree with her and would want her to do her job and go by the guidelines of discipline. So my kindergartener that's 5 was punched in the mouth by a third grader that's 8 or 9 to were her mouth was swollen and was crying in front of everyone on the bus and nothing was done... I asked her y the child hit her she said she didn't know the bus was loading and the little girl called my child to the back of the bus to her and punched my baby in the face and my baby cried and the little girls brother laughed and the little girl said she didn't care... my baby is a mommas baby, that stays to herself, she stays under me and is quiet. I even asked the bus driver .... she said she didn't see anything and was unaware and told me it didn't happen on her bus , there wasn't a puddle of blood or nothing ..... my child had a busted lip how much do you want her to bleed ? I mean its like no one cared at all!!!!! Ms. Adams does not go by the disciplinary policy and don't enforce any behavior guidelines to the kids. As a tax payer that's a waste of my money and They should not be allowed to get a free salary....... This is the reason of our society now. Are kids are the future.
