Paint Creek Elementary School

No nurse at the school. That seems like a tremendous liability with hundreds of students. Office staff have this attitude that they are just God's gift to this earth and have no concern or respect for a parent's requests/concerns. A parent knows their child best. Not a pompous administrative assistant. Not a disrespectful and lazy principal. A PARENT. You are supposed to be able to trust the school and staff with the well being of your child and feel welcome at the school. Unfortunately, neither of these things happen. On top of that, the learning here is subpar, as too many teachers don't even meet the state standard for teaching as far as their certification goes. Nearly this entire school needs an employee clean out. Just shocking a school can "function" in such a manner.

The school has made a huge improvement in its learning progress. Hiring new administration staff and changing out the principal. My son is in fourth grade now and I am very happy with not only his learning achievements, but also the focus on social and emotional well being.

follow through on IEP is excellent here. A safe and extremely friendly school in an amazing setting tucked by woods. Exceptional communication and genuine desire to see my kids succeed.

I have children in the preschool, elementary school, and middle school, and truly I believe there isn't a better school out there. We used to have our kids at a local public school, and I would never badmouth them, because they have to be true to their purpose and mission, but the teachers, families, and leadership of St. Joseph school are truly special, exceptional, and a cut above - academically, socially, and of course spiritually.
