My oldest daughter is zoned for this school and I have not had an isse with anyone in the office staff until recently during ESY. The principal is VERY rude and unprofessional! She will threaten to RPC your child if you're more than 5 minutes late!
Posted by a parent on 7/13/2018My son goes here and the teacher and office staff have always been kind and helpful. I read other reviews and totally disagree with the way the school is described. We are one of the few white families there and our treatment is no different than anyone elses. I love this school and even after losin
Posted by a community member on 1/31/2017Wish I could give no stars. This school is awful I have had several problems. It is unfortunate my kids had to go here again do to denial of zone variance. Its extremely unorganized to where the smaller children are getting trampled by older kids and some parents as well. My kids are not challenged
Posted by a parent on 9/10/2014Horrible school, if your child already speaks perfect english do your kid a favor and enroll them elsewhere. Theres no challenge mentally for my child, he isnt where he should be for his grade level. He is behind academically from having to deal with teaching better english. He has a cousin same age
Posted by a parent on 6/26/2014Worst school in the district!!!!!!! The staff are rude, unresponsive, and are extremely bias. My daughter has attended school here for two years and has had many issues with staff not properly notifying parents of incidents in school. The front desk personel are I'll mannered and very unprofessional

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter doesn’t even want to go back to the school. She begs me everyday that the staff is mean to her. I’ve had issues with other students from the middle school across the street threaten my daughter because her and another girl in her class get into girly arguments in 5th grade. The staff do nothing about it but if you make it aware that you will protect your daughter at all cost and press charges, tell the student to stop making threats against your child, they want to call it a threat against a minor which is crazy if they expect me to just stand there when my child walks home. The school has completely affected my daughter’s mental health. She’s only 10.. the staff don’t listen to your concerns, they belittle you as a parent, they will blame you child for this and that with no reasonable proof other than “student” witnesses? At this point, I’m starting to think they’re targeting my daughter. My daughter puts her head down in class, she’s isolated from other children when she chooses not to do her work because it’s too hard for her, this school does NOT care about their students.. they only care about a paycheck. That’s it. I don’t recommend taking your child here at all. Currently taking these incidents to the district. Why do you think their google reviews are off on their school page?Parent Review7mo ago - Sandy Searles Miller Elementary School
