South Elementary School

The Wilkins (West), has an amazing group of dedicated educators! Our youngest started kindergarten this year and has learned so much! We are very happy with the school and our children are thriving!

This school is the WORST elementary school I've ever come across. There is absolutely NO way my child will be going there again next year. The office staff is ridiculously rude, they DO NOT care about your children, and my child is constantly being harrassed. They act like they're nice at first, but believe me, it IS an act, and their true colors show whenever you ask them for help. This school is a huge disappointment and my child doesn't even want to be there.

My son is currently in third grade but this will be the last year at this school. He has ADHD and his teachers are aware of this with his paperwork. When he gets distracted or frustrated instead of redirecting him they let him wander away from the rest of the class. The teacher is a new replacement the school found at the last minute and it feels like she either isn't properly trained or experienced to work with a class this size. We were also informed that the school does not have a fourth grade teacher for next year as the current one was a temporary substitute for this year. I don't know if the extremely poor training is because of budget cuts or the new administration but it is hurting all of the students. Do not send your child here or they will just fall behind their peers at other schools.

I completely disagree with the score the George school has on this site! My daughter has been going here since kindergarten and has an amazing experience. She had been in a situation where she was being bullied and received so much support from teachers, guidance counselors, and the principal. I was always being communicated with whenever something happened. She received support for her emotional well being and for different educational needs that she needed some extra help in. I love the updates we get through the app and the monthly Jaguar journal! The addition of learning to read, write, and speak in a second language can be challenging but there are many wonderful resources and people ready to help if you need them!
