Washington Elementary School

School is very dirty; bathrooms look like they haven't been cleaned in years, big mice and rodent infestation. School secretary is not a very nice person she looks overwhelmed and takes her frustrations out on parents. Parents and some of teachers are very cliquey and keep your child out of things and make them feel really bad.

I appreciate that my child is learning about the Lord at school. Attending a public school was a nightmare with the teachers' and principals' lack of support, so having a new beginning at ALA is a Godsend. However, I am concerned with whether teaching is up to par with competing schools and state standards. Not all the teachers are certified or have even attended college to teach so the strategies are lacking as well as understanding the methods of teaching, reteaching, and meeting students where they are. There needs to be a bigger push on academics and possibly having students rewarded by being inducted into the Junior Honor Society to motivate and encourage young learners.Another concern is the high teacher turnover rate and the administrative team's lack of supervision in supporting their teachers' needs. Lastly, it is a Christian school and the superintendent is wonderful. I hope he is closely assessing where ALA can step up and become a reputable Christian school known for its academic rigor and development of future leaders.

This school is unprofessional. Went through the admission process since June 2025. Got everything they asked for: 2 letters of recommendation, 2 years grades, and 2 years standardized tests. Also needed an interview with the principal. I had to do numerous follow ups just to get an interview, which was later postponed. The week of 8/11 I finally went in for the interview. Was told I’d hear back on a couple of days. I was ghosted. No response. I followed up, no response. I could have sent my son to a different school. Totally unprofessional. They need to realize that this has an impact on my family. I expected better from this school. Also, the different seasonal uniform requirement are ridiculous.

Memorial Campus School is well maintained facility with good educational program. My Son currently had Mrs. Staley as a his KGD teacher and I can share that she is great! She is strict ,which teach the kids to fallow the daily schedule, she is experienced to the detail. Academically ,she is practicing with them a lot and give them a lot of homework regarding to some parents, but my personal view is that she is actually doing them a favor and tech our children on responsibility and prepare them academically well for 1st grade. Over all I recommend Memorial Campus School as a safe, well maintained and academically prosper school.
