David M Cox Elementary School

I wouldn’t recommend this school to my worst enemy. Administration and front office are disengaged and rude. The teachers are only there for a paycheck. It’s a sad sight

Our daughter is having an awesome experience. She’s in 3rd grade and has gone here the whole time. I feel like they do a lot to keep families involved and the kids are learning and having fun!

The current principal and assistant principle are absolutely awful. They both refrain from practicing what they preach , kindness. The principle only prioritizes the kids whom parents are on the PTO. It’s a disgusting environment.

If I could give this school a No stars I would. Nothing is done about the bullying both in and cyber done by the kids that have been attending the school since kinder!

This review has been brewing for about 2 years since our child started at this school. Being the most expensive school in the state you would expect a better experience, especially being there is competition around every corner. Here are some of the issues we had:Teacher turnover: You almost quite literally don't know who your child's teacher is going to be by the day because they leave so often and they scramble to relace them.Child Hygiene: Their refusal to assist your infant/toddler in the pre-stages of bathroom care and potty care is unacceptable, and cost us TWO visits to the quick care for UTIs.Pay Gap: The principal drives a brand new Mercedes and wears Red Bottoms around while the teachers seem to leave as fast as they come due to pay scale.School Safety/Design: The school is poorly designed and offers minimal security compared to the competition. Actually the only security is the front door code. No cameras that parents can look at all. Our childs classroom was right at the front with direct access to outside, the lobby, and the courtyard.Food: There is none.Curriculum: The curriculum is terrible. The curriculum and one-on-one time with your child should reflect upon the price you pay for admission. I could put my child in public school if I wanted them to be just a number.In conclusion compared to the competition you are paying ABSURD prices for less time, you supply your own food, and force your kid into a uniform to match the façade of "luxury" in a sub-par school and environment. If you look at just 2 more schools that are even close to the cost, I put my bottom dollar that this will not be the one that you choose.

I sent both of my sons here for preschool. The small class size, and attentive staff made me and my children feel safe. I loved the sense of community amongst the staff and the families. My boys learned so much and experienced a kind and loving atmosphere.
