Excellent neighborhood school with large involvement with community. New principal very engaged with students and faculty.
Posted by a parent on 12/21/2024My child has experienced instances of racism and discrimination at Burton, and the school did not take appropriate action to address these issues. The school's outward image of inclusivity is a façade. Overall, I would not recommend this school to families of color. It is important for schools to cr
Posted by a parent on 9/15/2024Burton is an amazing school that looks at each child individually and support them. The staff and teachers are caring and compassionate and the Principal is the same. The students do well academically but also socially. We have been extremely happy here and often share that we would never want our c
Posted by a parent on 12/13/2018We had such an awful experience at Burton. The principal is just terrible. She tried very hard to derail my daughters education who was only in kindergarten. It was so terrible we decided to buy a new house and move to get away from her. She literally only cares about test scores she does not care a
Posted by a parent on 9/5/2017The school was great for my three daughters. I'm a nurse and love the focus on science and economics. In the real world their are more opportunties studying economics and sciences. Many complain that they do not focus enough on Music, Drama, Sports, and Shop but we love that.

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI can't say enough great things about Key Elementary school. We moved here from Florida about 3 years ago where my kids attended a private school. I was worried about if my kids would thrive at a new school, 1,000 miles from home! Well, they are thriving and they love their school. Their grades are great and their teachers are excellent. I can't say enough great things about the administration, Ms. Shana Murphy is an excellent principal who takes the time to know all her students (by name) and their parents! They have many meetings and events where parents can get involved. Great school!!Parent Review3y ago - Pepper Elementary School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school has low rates on everything .The children are below level. The majority of workers seem like they are not qualified. Seem like they need to do background checks on the volunteers . The children that need 504 plan or special education seem like the school does not want to help them..Parent Review4y ago - Rogers Elementary School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageHaving the privilege to be apart of this environment of this school, it has the most dedicated teachers and parents that show support and compassion. The teaching team was collaborative, student-focused, and consistently went above and beyond to support one another and the school community. There are not enough words for the educators that are there.Unfortunately, despite the strength of the staff the work environment was undermined by unsafe leadership practices. These were apparent with the staffing changes and the way the staffing felt odd and uneasy in conversations. Everything suddenly needed to be approved or sent to admin. The administration, created a culture that at times felt chaotic and unsafe for both staffing and students. Concerns were certainly raised at a board level and dismissed or ignored. This is disheartening because with a transparent leadership this school could go back to being the amazing place that would be an outstanding place to be at for staffing and students.Other Review1y ago - St. Mary Catholic School
