Singleton Elementary School

Ballman is an amazing school!! The principal and teachers always put students first! Go Ballman Bears!

Very inconsistent their are a couple of excellent teachers but not nearly enough. The nurse will make your sick child where a mask they have vomited in. The nurse also is known for making false DHS reports. They change their special need therapist every year my youngest has been pushed through the grades she's going into third grade and can read or do her basics. My other two children graduated from their and moved on both struggles with the basics

They are great with the children and have made so much more progress with our daughter the Beard Elementary school. They are a fantastic group of Educators and the Children there are so polite as well. I would suggest anyone in there area to put their child in the school. Thank You Carnell The Blodgetts

We love the school family and how small it is. Mr. Needham is an amazing principal!! Trully goes above and beyond!!

A pretty good school over all, even though I had a bad experience with 2 teachers.

Please take note that this school had good reviews prior to the change in the head of school around 2015. It was a great community for many many years before then. After that change everything changed. “The Montessori school of Fort Smith is over crowded, staff is under trained and overwhelmed. The school is not accredited by any Montessori society nor regulated by any educational entity. Administration is careless, money driven and unresponsive. This school has gone from a community of caring people, to an exclusive club for the wealthy. Sad.”“05/09/2016 There is money being donated without proper IRS documentation, fundraiser prizes are not distributed as advertised, monies raised for one thing then are being allocated elsewhere, and the staff are required to sign non-disclosure agreements regarding everything, including payroll information. This organization has not filed anything with the State of Arkansas since incorporation in 1989, not even to update the current mailing address. The members of the board are unknown to the public, as are the dates, times and locations of their meetings, so getting to attend one is impossible. The chief executive listed is the gatekeeper for all, including the agendas for the meetings. Any information relating to this 501(c)(3) that are supposed to be made FREELY available by law to the public is not so available, even from the state of incorporation and operation.”Michelle2267 via greatnonprofits.org
