Flower Hill Elementary School

We are really happy with the school

It is a title one school with mainly minorities but it’s the most wonderful school. The teachers really care about helping the students succeed and teach their full potential.

The teachers are amazing here. My child is excited to go to school in the morning. The school is very supportive when it comes to learning disabilities. I can reach out to them and they are very responsive and will talk to about concerns I have. This school is great!

I have two children at Whetstone Elementary and have been impressed with services and level of attention provided to both of my children. The teachers are very much engaged and maintain register contact with my husband and I. One of my children is special-needs and requires special education, we have experienced nothing but outstanding support from from everyone that we have come in contact with.

My son has attended Strawberry Knoll from Kindergarten and is now graduating from 5th grade. All of the teachers my son has had have been wonderful and they care. Before the Pandemic and throughout they have always gone above and beyond. The school is diverse, the Principal Mr. Scott is great and gets to know the students individually. They have a lot of events and activities to include the family. I am very happy with the education my son received at Strawberry Knoll. If your child is shy or has challenges, they will find the "Knoll" to be a safe inclusive environment. I can't say enough about Strawberry Knoll.

The elementary school is acceptable, (and why I gave 2 stars and not 1) but it used to be excellent. Before COVID, the school had strong leadership under a principal who was a Godly man who set a clear tone and high standards. After he left, the overall quality declined significantly.The upper school (6th grade and above) has been especially disappointing. Since COVID, the school has grown too quickly and does not seem to have managed that growth well. In my experience, this has led to the hiring of teachers and assistants who appear unprepared or severely unqualified, and the academic environment and overall student moral has suffered as a result.Before COVID, this school was a very different place and I would have recommended it without hesitation. Today, based on our experience and in talking to other parents and students, I would not recommend the school. At this point, I would suggest that families seriously consider other options. Even public school should be considered over this school. In its current state, (since 2020) I believe this school may do more harm than good for many students.
