Desoto Central Elementary School

Elementary school is okay although the curriculum and some methods are outdated, but high school is horrible. The curriculum is traditional and not on the latest research of best practices. Some teachers are willing to help your child, but other teachers and administration are not. If you question anything, you are labeled as the bad guy. If students or an entire class do poorly, they are labeled as not paying attention or doing what they need. Internal reflection never happens as a whole. If you are looking for a school that is "there way or no way," then this school is for you. Sports---good luck--your child's experience will depend on which sport and who you know or what you can contribute as a parent. Kids are teased and assaulted in locker rooms and school/sport/ trips and administration does not care. Spend your dollars elsewhere-where teachers and administration are always willing to have internal reflection to determine what can be done to help EVERY student succeed.

I just can't say enough good things about this school. It was our family's life saver, when my children were going to a private school just down the street, and being treated like they were trouble makers every day. This school doesn't use a "whoopin", it uses effective communication, which is all children need. My children LOVE school, they've learned so much, and I have never been happier.

At sacred heart everyone has friends and fits in great and the teachers are very kind the learning is amazing their faith in God is immaculate and they keep you informed about everything and I love everything about sacred heart

My kids went here last year, they now go to Horn Lake and let me tell you we miss it! The school is nice, clean, the staff is friendly and helpful. The teachers are so enthusiastic and caring. I really wish we hadn't switched!
