Community Reviews
This school has been incredible! From community engagement to supporting our children when they struggle in a subject. We have been at Parkside for 2 years and absolutely love them!
Posted by a parent on 9/18/2025My two sons love this school, and I'm absolutely happy with the quality of instruction and the social-emotional interaction between very caring teachers and the kids.
Posted by a parent on 9/4/2025I'm concerned about the amount of screen time my child is getting during the school day. My kindergartener is in Track 1 and rarely has any screen exposure at home, so it's surprising to hear how frequently it's used at school. He's mentioned watching an episode and a half of a tv show, and that man
Posted by a parent on 8/1/2025The tone of the school is set by the Prinicipal. The previous prinicipal Ms. Caswell was great and hence the school was decent, but the new principal Mr. Hundson is completely incompetent. Add to it equally incompetent teachers and you get a school that is pretty much useless in every way. The only
Posted by a parent on 12/19/2023My child is in Pre-K (2021-2022) and it has been an amazing change in structure for my hyperactive child after staying home during the pandemic. We receive weekly newsletter on what the child will be learning during that week along with other notifications. My child is very happy and comes home to t

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSchool is not good, the assistant principal is unfriendly, especially for the older kids. They improperly deal with those with special needs, never excited about school, only recess is good and some of the teachers are unfriendly. They had not given us a shirt we bought and probably frustrates a lot of students.Other Review3mo ago - Cedar Fork Elementary

There seems to be core messaging to the students on a daily basis about treating people with respect.Parent Review3mo ago - Carpenter Elementary

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThere have been many unexpected and concerning incidents involving my young child during just two months at this school.We had sent our kid to other schools we never had to worry about.For safety reasons we decided to leave - it's the best choice we can make.The teachers are unable to manage students properly, and LE director is not supportive when children are hurt or bullied.We've experienced multiple cases of assaults and bullying in the classroom, only for 2 month, but the school did nothing to protect the victims.If you read other reviews, you'll see this in an ongoing issue here.I would only recommend this school to parents whose children are bullies - because the school is extremely generous and protective towards them.GOOD LUCK.Parent Review6mo ago - Alston Ridge Elementary School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe couldn’t be happier with our experience at Hortons Creek elementary school. From the moment we walked through the doors, we felt welcomed, supported, and confident that our child was in a nurturing and engaging environment. The teachers are caring and dedicated, the staff is supportive, and the learning environment is both fun and challenging. We’ve seen so much growth and couldn’t be happier.Parent Review8mo ago - Discovery Child Development Center LLC
