Hubert H Humphrey Elementary School

They prioritize attendance above all on account of their concern for funding. They do not honor IEPs. Any solutions they offer during IEPs when there is a medical or questionable underlying medical condition are all made as a means to quiet the parent. They are rarely followed through on. Communication does not exist and most the time parent's concerns will be ignored. School nurse's will badmouth you in front of your children and relatives. They will not hesitate to pass judgement either on you via phone call. They do not honor doctor's notes and put your children at risk of injury. Instructors do not communicate with each other. There is no collaboration making it hard to have an effective team for healthy supports in place. Would not recommend this school to anyone who has students who have special needs. They will automatically dub your student as the problem and will take zero accountability themselves. Should you seek their help, their best advice to you will be to remove your student from their school and seek online alternatives. They are a perfect mirror reflection of what is wrong with today's society. Shame on you, El Dorado!

Being a parent, my experience with this school has been negative, especially with the leader. How do we expect our kids to spend seven hours inside this building when just two seconds between drop off and pick up we feel disrespected and unwelcome?

This school truly stands out for its student centered approach and the intentional care shown by staff. Both the general education and special education programs are exceptional, with a commitment to meeting children where they are and helping them grow. The educators are thoughtful and invested in their students success. It’s clear that inclusion, support, and meaningful relationships are priorities here, creating a learning environment where students (and parents) feel valued and supported.
