Thirteenth Avenue Elementary School

Too much fighting and bullying..teachers don't seem to put any type of importance to this matter in the upper grades. I very disappointed with this school and regret transferring my kids in this year. I have never heard kids complain about such things until they started in this school. I five children attending in pre- k, 1, 2, 4, and 6th grade and 3 out of the five have been bullied and hate the school this year. Thanks alot Camden St. School.....

This is a very good school and I very like my daughter going there more kids should go

Excellent School with excellent treacher that really have a heart in teaching. I am only sorry that they only go to the 2nd grade.

NEWSFLASH: This school no longer exists. It hasn t existed since 2005. The school building now houses University Heights Charter School. I attended this school for Pre-K. I have many happy memories here, like praying before lunch with Mrs. Atwell, or having picnics on the grass by the playground. This was a lovely school. I think they went through financial issues, because they closed down. It s so sad that all the great, promising private schools of the nineties had to close down: Bethany Christian Academy, The Chad School, St. Lucy Filippini, among many others.

I really struggled with the way dismissal was handled at this school. I am claustrophobic, and when over 100 people were trying to leave out of one single door, it became very overwhelming and uncomfortable for me. I tried to calmly explain this to the staff and asked if I could exit through another door, especially since I was suggesting they let other parents use it too to make things easier and safer. Instead, I was told I wasn’t allowed, even though it clearly would have helped with the crowding. I felt dismissed and like my concerns weren’t taken seriously, which made the whole situation much more stressful than it needed to be.
