Anderson Elementary School

My children have been in Anderson since kindergarten and I am so happy with the support the staff gives to the kids. My oldest loved both his teachers there. Great staff!

This is the second year my son has gone to Anderson and I love it! The teachers there are awesome and have great communication with the parents. I however am not sure about the music teacher as she always leaves poor comments on my sons report card and he's only been in young fives and kindergarten and the parking lot can be crazy at drop off and especially pick up time.

I have a child who goes to Anderson elementary. The teacher that my child has had so far has been great. Communicates great and puts her foot down When needed and a lot of children need that. Teachers put up with a lot and I respect her because of that. The support system is very good there. They have done everything in the book they could to go that extra mile in helping my child. The only thing that eliminated one star is the principal Mrs. Watkins. She is very rude. I don't know why she has hatred towards a lot of parents but she does. You can say hi or ask her how she is doing and she will literally look at you and walk away. Very poor leadership in the principal. If they had a more open minded, patient principal this school would be almost 5 star. Also I've noticed if your child isn't acting like a angel a lot of the teachers talk amongst each other about them. Too bad.

I really am happy with Anderson. I recently moved my child from one class to another, but Mrs. Watkins was supportive in this. She is very involved with daily student activities. There are great teachers there, as well : Ms. Wheeler and Ms. Jablonski, just to name a couple. Yes, the parents could be more involved, and that would make it a better school. However, everyone likes to co,plain rather than try to make things better.

It is very sad that this school has such poor leadership. There are some great teachers who try really hard and really love the kids but they have no support. Parents are basically always wrong and even falsely accused of things. The principal only does what she wants and does not accept any suggestions. This school could be a much better place if it had a leader who had the kids best interest in mind. I know of seven families that live within a quarter of a mile from the school that send their kids to other Grand Blanc Schools.
