Posted by a student on 5/24/2026This school is horrible. I pulled my child out after 3 months. I would ask my child on a daily basis, what did you do, what did you learn and I was always told nothing, the teachers don’t teach. They might give 5 minutes of instruction and the rest of the class was just free time. They expect the ki
Posted by a parent on 12/12/2025This school is absolutely awful and need to be shut down in all honesty. It is extremely hard to get an appointment with the principal or guidance counselor. You call the main office and they tell you that you need to email the personnel in order to get an appointment with them yet nobody ever repli
Posted by a community member on 6/11/2025From my experience as a student, Unfortunately, G.

Posted by a student on 11/1/2024This is unacceptable. My child goes to this school and the amount of danger that has happened in the school and parents were never notified.

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe primary years were great, but the academics as the students progress is not good. There are a few good teachers in the upper grades, but then there are others that seem to be either uncertified or substitutes. Also, there is no control over student behavior. The administration is not transparent about what is going on in the school, especially with funds. I am thinking about pulling my children and placing them in the neighborhood school.Parent Review1y ago - William Paca Elementary School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe school is horrible. They think that because the school is located and a low income area that is OK to give these students the bare minimum. The test scores are low because they’re not teaching a students nor getting the kids to help that they need. The principal doesn’t know or interact with the kids and she’s been there for over 18 years and we wonder why this school has low test scores. The kids are not getting the proper education because of the staff.Parent Review1y ago - Highland Park Elementary School

1/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am a grandmother and I watched my grandson grow in reading identifying words on his own. I have watched him grow in math adding and counting in a short period of time this tells me how focused the teachers are because sometimes he loses focus. My grandson is in the first grade school will end in 3 days and he will promoted to the 2nd grade. I would like to thank the patience teacher's you are making a wonderful difference. My grandson name is Landon Dennis and I am Teresa Dennis Blessings to you all you have done your job because getting kids who have a hard time grasping sometimes you have done your job.

The community feels welcoming and respectful, and communication with parents is clear and consistent. In the classroom, students are encouraged to learn, ask questions, and grow both academically and socially.
