Twenty Eighth St Elementary School

Most of the staff are friendly and supportive i especially love the music art and pe staff the speech teacher and special ed staff are awesome principal is good and asst some of the the staff need to retire and give younger teachers jobs teaching is a gift and its rewarding but when you are just doing it to receive a paycheck or monetary value its time to retire and its always better to be kind and loving to everyone agree to disagree

Do not be fool by the previous ratings and comments. Most of the previous posting are from faculty and the principle. The school is awful. If you care about your children education avoid this school. If possible avoid the Gulfport (there are only two good schools in the district, which are Anniston and Bayou Elementary) and Harrison county. One good thing about West is that there are a couple teachers that are good, the ones that were kept from the previous administration. West, care more about behavior and academics, which I believe that both are as important. The worst part of the school is the principal. Overall, do not send your kid. For parents that have children there report the administration bad behavior. Don't just go to the superintendent (because he doesn't do NOTHING) Go tot the school boardIf you don't get help there go to the Mississippi department of education.and if you get no help there go to the Federal Department of Justice.

I would not send my child anywhere else! The Principal is wonderful and is a strong leader! She has an open door policy and any concerns by a parent are taken care of right away. All of the teachers and staff are excellent and they really care about the children. I'm so glad my child is in a loving environment and among people who really care for her! St. John is Family! The school is conveniently located downtown too so I can attend all events at the school during the work day and even have lunch with my child! My child is little only once and to be able to be so close and attend school activities with her is PRICELESS!
