Lloyd Road Elementary School

What kind of institution would allow a child, ANY child, to be stabbed and beaten and harassed and do NOTHING about it. Avoid this school of you value your child's safety.

This is a great school and it is only getting better with the new principal. Not sure why some people had negative reviews. Maybe it was one person with a grudge. I have been in some difficult schools before and this is not one of them. The children learn a lot and the after school clubs and activities are getting better every year.

Lloyd road is a school where kids are treated like livestock! Lloyd Road School is where students graduating from 3 different elementary schools; (Strathmore, Ravine Drive, and Cliffwood) collide for 2 years to be pushed through 4th and 5th grade with little care. The students are unruly, and totally disruptive to the point of preventing others from learning at all. The teachers have zero control, so resort to screaming at the top of their lungs for the children to “Shut up”, and “I’m sick of it.” I hear stories often that shock me about the rude behavior of teachers when children cry or are hurt. They have said things such as “Stop crying unless it is a life or death situation!” The lunch aides stand by at recess and do NOTHING while boys run down girls, and slap them on their behinds. They say nothing when kids play demeaning “Slave” games, and round up all the African American kids in a group and not let them out of a certain area. Kids are not allowed to use the restrooms depending on teachers’ moods on any given day. This place should be investigated, and all the abusive staff removed. The things I hear from the children attending this school are too numerous to list, and horrendous. Advice to parents, if your children have to go here make them bring in video recording devices for their own protection. This place is a top news story just waiting to happen.

My child hates this school. She tells me almost daily how the teachers yell at the students to "shut up and other rude remarks." In her words the teachers are loud bullies . Her classmates say the same. What they tell me each day about the teachers behaviors is shocking and unprofessional.

Lloyd Road is a terrible school. Staff is extremely unprofessional and unorganized. Some teachers exhibit very nasty behavior to the students. Teachers cannot control their classes especially the ones that commingle the smart kids with the kids with behavior issues. The kids who want to learn are easily distracted. Very poor teaching skills. I would not recommend this school at all.
