Jessie F George Elementary School

amazing school, principal barbi is very nice. my kids always have a fun time here and don’t want to leave.

I wrote this review before yet ran out of room for an important point. (School should have more poor reviews anyway). The amount of substance abuse that goes on within the school is an absolute joke yet they expect kids to be 100% engaged and interested when very little teachers give you that opportunity. Cheating is rampant in the acjo as well yet the school with again ignore it and do nothing about this review. Please do more to help you’re school and the mental state of starlets as I’ve legitimately had to go to therapy and see others a good reason for that because of this school and the incapability to guide you, give you help, or even give you a half decent experience.

I would strongly caution parents of children with special needs. Despite clear needs, there has been little meaningful progress. Core goals like communication and responding to name remain inconsistent months into the program, yet reporting suggests progress without clear data.Special education leadership lacks transparency and accountability. Requests for information are often delayed or deflected, and there is a clear gap between what’s written in the IEP and what is actually implemented.The calendar and daily schedule are also difficult for working families. Frequent half days, limited hours, and early pickup times are out of sync with surrounding districts and create unnecessary strain.In my experience, the district also lacks diversity across students, staff, and leadership, which is noticeable.If your child needs structured, intensive support, this district is not equipped to provide it. I would not recommend moving here unless you plan to pursue private school options.

The teachers and staff are passionate and care for the children with love. Organized by the school, the big and small events are not only fun and diverse but also a great opportunity to make friends with other family members in the community. My child and I love this school entirely and are satisfied with every aspect of it.

St John's Academy is an amazing, faith driven school. The interim principal is FANTASTIC. She has faced a number of challenges thrown at both her and the school with such poise and respect. She has truly made St John's a school that is safe, fun, and full of love. The teachers are well educated and treat the parents and students with the upmost respect. I know from personal experience how great this school is. It wouldn't be half the school it is without the leadership of the interim principal and the amazing faculty and staff. We love St John's and recommend it to anyone and everyone!
