Belcher Elementary School

We love Academy Hill. The faculty and staff are fantastic. The facility is very modest, but the instruction inside is second to none.

i went here grades preschool to 5th before switching because of how terrible this place was. im currently in 8th grade and think switching was the best decision i could ever have made. this school opened a dcf case on us because of me missing school for about 3 days after we had told them i was sick and that we'd have a doctor's note in the next day. that dcf case is still open to this day, all because i got the flu and missed school. there's also a severe bullying problem here, and i know at least three people who have also gone here before who could back that up, yet the school does nothing about it. the academics are okay, but if you're having trouble most teachers will put in no effort to help. this school also does not make any attempt to accondomate to those who need it, such as people with learning differences. honestly, this school is just a terrible environment for kids. i was constantly extremely anxious and deppressed when attending this school, and have been so much happier after leaving. the lunches here also constantly made me and others sick. lots of the food i was given was also expired, not cooked properly, or had things such as hair in it. the school is overly strict with kids and leaves no room for individuality. Lastly, the staff has their favorites and makes no effort into hiding it, and let me tell you i was not a favorite and many of the teachers constantly made me feel terrible about myself. leaving this school has allowed me to grow as a person, expand my social skills, and just be overall happier. dont send your children here.
