Read what parents are saying about Patrick F Healy Middle SchoolThis school has really turned around! The students’ test scores have gone up significantly and their behaviors are not nearly as bad as they used to be. Every school has their problems and Patrick Healy doesn’t have the issues they used to. The staff seems to work very hard nowadays to improve the school’s environment for the kids. They are always having some kind of event or spirit week to boost morale. It’s actually kinda nice now!

Posted by a community member on 8/31/2016There are some really good teachers such as Ms Wilson who really care about the kids good or bad and she demands respect from the kids. Now you have others who call you if your child blows their nose the wrong way. I understand pre-teens are a handful but if the teacher cannot control students in their class maybe they need a new profession.
Posted by a parent on 3/30/2015Keep your children away from this school. The children are so bad. Sorry it is what it is. Lack of guidance. I really don't know what the adults in the school are doing. So many fights, cops around there ALL the time. Bad enough they do not respect their own school, they go to other schools and cause problems as well. Yesterday the kids from the Hart Middle School complex were throwing ice at peoples cars in front of another nearby school. I was looking right at them. Last month, kids from Hart Middle School complex were challenging cars to hit them. Just walking in front of the cars, daring cars to hit them. Where are their parents my goodness! It is so crazy what they do. Parents if you can, send them somewhere else, don't send them to these schools.

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageBest school to start your child at. It goes from 3K - Kindergarten. I wanted my child to start school in an environment that’s suitable for her and easy for her to adapt to and she has loved going here from the beginning. Now she’s graduating from Kindergarten this year moving up to another school. This was the perfect starting point. The neighborhood is safe as well. I love the staff at wahlstrom. The security guard does a wonderful job at keeping the kids safe and making sure everyone is good. If you’re nervous about getting your young one into a safe trustworthy school environment, enroll them into Wahlstrom. You’ll love it here and so will your little ones.Parent Review1mo ago - Edward T. Bowser Sr Elementary School

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 - Shelia Y. Oliver Academy

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI previously went to this school, and I have to say, I loved it. Everyone, from the security guards to the janitors, felt like family. I was so sad to let this school go, and I would 100% have stayed if they had a middle school and a high school course. The only complaint I ever had was with a teacher. She was a real pain to everyone, and was biased when I came to teaching. The principal, who grew to be an adult friend while I attended there, helped us sort it out, and intervened when the teacher tried to do anything she shouldn't have done. I miss carver, but if you were to send your kids here, they would love it.Other Review2y ago - Whitney E. Houston Academy Elementary School
