Fay Galloway Elementary School

If I could put a negative in SAFETY I would. Today 8/14/2025 the 2nd day of school for my son. I had a feeling during enrollment this was not the school for us. Im very intune and read people very quickly. I have a transfer pending to a school closer to us done before I even visited this school. Im in a pool on a waiting list apparently. 2nd day my son attends this school they LOST him. He was put on a bus I NEVER SIGNED FOR HIM TO RIDE. I picked him up his 1st day no problem because on his paper I listed he would be a PICK UP. Apparently if you are a few minutes late they place them on a bus. I was a few minutes late due to all the construction on Boulder and being from out of state just moved here didn't know how much traffic I was going to have to get through. I was about 8 min late at the most 10 mins. That doesn't even matter because my son was already ON A BUS being dropped off in a new STATE down streets we dont even know. He's 4th grade and is autistic and was put on a bus with endless possibilities to be dropped anywhere in 106 degree weather. He would've never known how to get home even if he did magically get dropped at the correct bus stop he's autistic and is completely new to this area and state. The school police was called Henderson police was being called the women in the office had no sensitivity towards what I was going through while I was in the office frantically irritated with my 11 yr old daughter next to me crying because she thought her baby brother was gone. When the called the bus that was assigned to him they told us he was NOT on the bus and 2 stops had already been done. I wanted to loose it literally loose it. I TOLD them call the 2nd bus and tell them to check for him STOP both busses. I was in that office frozen not knowing where to go search for him how soon the cops would appear wondering if he got off the bus at 1st or 2nd stop and was with dangerous strangers ready to take a 9yr old autistic child who is lost. Unbelievable is all I can say for this school but I knew I had a gut feeling this was not the school for us something about a place really speaks to you when you encounter the staff and how they handled the whole situation and how we even got to that situation. It felt unsafe it is unsafe don't trust this institution!!!!! The 1st day my son attended he came to me and immediately told me the teachers yell at you too much. I asked him well did you get in trouble and his response was no but they yell at all the kids.

this school is horrible . they let kids bully other kids , prinbalec don’t do nothing about it , education , horrible , social , horrible DO NOT enroll ur kids here .

This school is horrible please parents if you are looking for your child to have the one of the best school experiences ever start by NOT enrolling them in Sue Morrow Elementary School. Pick your poison this school sucks and really should be shut down for how unsanitary it is. They mistreated my disabled child and will be undergoing a lawsuit soon!

This school is a joke, this is my daughter's second year attending this school and I can honestly say they dont help at all, my daughter has sever hyperactivity, with other conditions and yet she gets no help, im battling to get an IEP and they don't take it seriously, shes on medication but it doesnt always help her 24/7. Her teacher does not help her and instead of coming to me so we can come up with a plan she tells me my daughter never listens. This school had gone downhill very quick, to firing the principle to never communicating with the parents of this school. The teacher herself has no idea what she is doing and basically my daughter is a project to her. This is the teachers second year teacher but still acts like its her first day teaching, she does not know how to work with children who need extra help and frankly I'm tired of it, the no communication and just saying my daughter is a bad kid is beyond ridiculous.

Smalley is an amazing school with wonderful teachers and staff! I want to give a special shout out to Mrs Lindquist, she is the most beautiful and caring person we have ever met. Her heart is massive and she truly cares about the kids and family’s too! We moved out of state but we feel truly blessed to have had such a wonderful person be a part of our daughter life! We will miss you tremendously as well as all the beyond awesome staff at Smalley!

LMCA is a great school for developing children academically, socially, and spiritually. It is safe and partners with parents. LMCA also offers financial help for those that may need it. I highly recommend the school and you should definitely check it out!
