2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageEverything about this school is so wrong they are only worried about the Hispanic kids ,for example BLACK HISTORY MONTH is just that trying to include Latin,African and carribean is disrespectful to the black Americans the fault for freedom and justice so other could use it as a personal gain or recognition factor without showing respect to the black Americans that paved the way for you and don’t want to forget how they constantly made it seem like my child was a trouble maker when he’s trying to make new friends ,it’s not his fault Hispanic kids don’t understand EnglishParent Review2mo ago - Dr. Gustavus Brown Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageTeachers experience should be improved. It was very concerning to see teachers leave mid school year. It does significantly affect the student experience.
