Read what parents are saying about Gordon Parks Academy Elementary SchoolVERY UPSET THAT THE FIFTH GRADE DOES NOT WEAR CAPS AND GOWNS FOR GRADUATION. But they allow the Kindergarden to wear them?? Go figure. Just like they put the cost on their parents I am sure the Fifth grade parents would not have had a problem.

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWORST School I've ever encountered in my life. There was absolutely no Student Activities no Sports no music no plays no parent-teacher meeting they just lock the kids up in the school and keep the parents totally separate from what's going on inside the school. You have no idea what student is Reading Writing or learning in the school kids can just walk home with no supervision or care. Not to mention the constant fights and police activity going on right next door at the middle school so now you have to worry about the environment your child is about to go into from elementary school. Avoid the school at all costsOther Review10mo ago - Mildred B. Garvin School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis is a great school, no parent should leave a child to sharpen their learning skills solely from what is taught by the teacher. I work with my son's teacher throughout the yr to reap grt results. Keep on keeping on Dionne Warwick!Parent Review7y ago - Ecole T Loverture School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageDO NOT ENROLL your child here, my child is special Ed and been going here for about 3 years the issues started small. Next thing you know the staff started to mistreat my child. When confronted about certain incidents the principal doesn’t say anything, he jumps to his staff’s defense! The East Orange board of ed as well. I noticed they all cover & look out for each other and not the children.You can bring them proof black and white and still nothing. I have pending complaints against the principal & staff at this time there’s pending investigations with the board of ed. I even did a consult with an attorney due to this. I had a personal conference with the school about concerns and one of them went and told the teacher the complaint was about & she confronted my daughter during music class, embarrassed and totally had her intimidated. When I went to the school to ask why this happened principal Jacob said nothing and put me out the office. Long story short skip this school!!!!! THANK ME LATER!!Parent Review1y ago - Cicely Tyson Com Elementary School

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAs an alumnus and now parent of three children currently attending the school I am overwhelming pleased at both the environment and quality of education at this school.As a 1999 graduate, my high school years here prepared me well for both college and life. Alhamdulillah, I now have a lucrative career as a senior web developer that was kicked off by an externship program created by Madrastu Ahlis Sunnah in my senior year.Returning as a parent in 2017, I've only seen improvements in both the physical structure of the school and level of staffing. My girls are very happy with their new school and thus far the communication and progress reporting from their teachers has been great.Parent Review6y ago
