Dentzler Elementary School

i personally have been (still am) going to this school for around 9 years now. i started my school life here in PRE-K 4s. before i begin, i would say that i recommend this school. the education is great and a lot better than most public schools and such. if i have children, more than likely i will send them here. but of course, it is indeed very pricy and has gotten more expensive over the years. they do provide financial help with things like that, but anyway. the strengths i’d say are: (in my opinion) the school has a very good and welcoming atmosphere/environment. the sanctuary or the church is absolutely gorgeous. as i stated before, the education is fantastic. the food is good and better than again most schools. however, like anything there are cons. with my personal experience, the things i’ve heard and seen, and other information from fellow classmates i can say that it is sexist. there is lots and lots of discrimination among students. slurs are thrown around like no tomorrow. those include the n-word from primarily white students, the f-slur, and more. mainly racism though. and another thing to add is they have ALL grades (i believe not including pre-k — 1st grade) do chapel. i just personally think that unless that kid actually understands what they’re saying, they shouldn’t be exposed to the idea of religion that early on. but that’s just a personal thought. the staff is mostly kind, accepting, and helpful. one last thing is that i feel as though the church has grown to only care for money.

Never in my life have I been more disappointed....For starters, the teachers are so unprofessional. They interact with students like they are not kids. They do not support the kids, especially in the junior high. They provide poor education and set the students up for failure. They have unrealistic expectations for the students. From personal experience, I can say it was a toxic environment. The teachers have clear favorites and do not have problems bringing students down. It is sad to know more kids have to go through what I did. As some students are favored, others are targeted. If one mistake is made, the teachers and staff will hold grudges. In the beginning, all is good. But as the years went on, it just got worse. Teachers are oblivious that some students come from different places. I wish I could say it was a good experience throughout my education there, but that is simply not true. Students are not supposed to dread going to school every day. they go through teachers and staff so fast because they hire random people will little teaching experience. Why should these people be trusted with KIDS.I wish the best to anyone who goes to this school because they need it.
