Indian Avenue Elementary School

This school has a real issue with bullies and not handling it properly, teachers don't want to be bothered by it when you call and address the issue. Some teachers are unprofessional and disrespectful. They can not handle their students the poor crossing guard has no support from the school when children arrive or dismissed from school. The how staff in that school is very poor and they don't build students confidence they do not care.

This school does nothing about bullying The teachers don't be believe my daughter They agree with the people that are messing with her The girls in my daughters school are very nasty they don't fush the toilet and they draw in on the walls I don't recommend this school

We are parents of two children at Hopewell Crest and have been disappointed with the quality of education they have been receiving. The curriculum is focussed primarily on mathematics not reading. Our children have struggled as a result. We believe reading is the key to unlocking a child's ability to comprehend all subjects. We have addressed our concerns with our children's education with both faculty and administration each year with little to no results. In addition, it is the only school we know that allows a child who gets a score of 80 or below to bring a test home and correct, and get a 15 point higher score, adjusting the child's score from a high C to a B or even an A. We feel this is padding a child's true grade, and even misleading them to believe they are doing better than they actually are. While correcting mistakes provides a learning opportunity, it should be done in the classroom, and not affect/skew the ultimate grade, and provides false encouragement that a child is performing better than he/she might be. This does not really address the true learning problem at hand.
