Shirley A Barber Elementary

I used to go to that school, and my teacher didn't do anything about my bullies

My daughter loved Lamping ES. Her teachers always went above and beyond for her and helped with learning difficulties after being home during Covid. Principals are visible and great with the students. The school is also so beautiful and well maintained. Possibly the only school with a science center and amazing resources for STEAM learning!

Both of my kids go here, and one is going to middle school. They love the staff. They go above and beyond. Kinder was a hard adjustment, and they were always patient and there for my kids. I would highly recommend this school. The principal is amazing. She really does try to make the school feel safe and welcoming, and the kids love her. Best School in the area :)

My daughter is in 3rd grade and it's her second year at Gehring. She is very happy and excited about going to school, especially the GATE (Gift and Talent Education program). The school provided lab top computers to bring home and do projects on. They have Virtual Reality glasses to wear in school to learn about science. In one of my daughter's projects was to draw a fictional character based on the teacher's description through reading and have the kids enter it into a drawing program in the computer to make it "alive". At the end of the project is to have the character print out by a 3-D printer. My daughter is excelling in school, and she is very happy to go to school every day. In addition, the school provided free hot breakfast and lunch every day with a meat and vegetarian choice. I also fell the school is very safe without any bullying incident that I know off. The school has a parent and teacher meeting once a semester to go over the child's progress. They also have a website called infinite campus to see all the test scores, and over all test grades. I feel like they really do care for my child's education and well-being. I would recommend this school whole heartedly.

The administration at this elementary school is horrid. I’m so sick of the way the teachers and staff and especially the parents, and how they treat everyone else around them who are more than welcome to be apart of this community. No one should be discriminated no one should be feeling like an outcast or out of place because they’re different or have a hard time learning new things . My little brother has autism and kids make fun of him for being different. The parents of these bullies are a great contribution to the behavior of their children. Entitled rude and disgusting behavior. There’s zero common courtesy , no one helps with any questions that I have and they’re disrespectful when my siblings have to be picked up slightly later than usual because they’d rather go home than make sure kids are safe and don’t make sure their well being is taken care of over all. And it’s not like my mother doesn’t call in advanced when there is an emergency, they know ahead of time and they just be mad because it’s an inconvenience to them closing the front office where children should feel safe. The staff are SO rude. I just really dislike the environment of this school. It’s a great school and they learn a lot of great things great programs. but the manners and overall attitude of the administrators should be checked immediately. I’m so sick and tired of people mistreating hard working parents and guardians when we’re trying the best we can too. Everyone knows when it rains in Vegas it POURS. So the streets flood, guess they expect everyone to have a freaking motor boat to pick our kids up on time when it doesn’t work like that. Things happen emergencies happen, kids get out of school right at rush hour! The organization of pickup for car riders is unacceptable. There’s buses rude kids rude parents no organization whatsoever, it’s hectic and hard to get out of the school zone because everyone thinks they’re entitled to go before everyone, and take up 3 car spaces so no one can park and get their kids. Parents and children don’t say excuse me me or use their manners when they’re in peoples way to walk, it’s all disrespectfully overlooked. If I lived in another district I would send them elsewhere but this is our only option right now and they love this school they’re just kids they don’t understand the meaning of mistreatment. Please fix the attitudes and over all environment of this establishment. It’s unsatisfying and unacceptable to everyone involved.

This school is good with good teaching. Their is no bullying, the lunch food made my kids sick that's the only downfall I think about this school.
