Great school if your parent is a teacher at the school or a pastor at the local church everyone goes to. Blatent nepotism for all the teachers children. They do whatever they want and never answer for anything. They get preferential treatment in every aspect. Also never seen a school with so many teachers with kids in the school it's legit almost every teacher has a kid there even Ms. Belk the old principal has a child there. They always ask for money for stuff but the kids never have anything nice at the school. Everything at the school is trash it all needs to be replaced lockers bathrooms hallways classrooms teachers administration all trash all needs to go teachers super over paid super under qualified. I've never been to a place where everyone is unhappy kids unhappy teachers unhappy administration unhappy no one wants to be at this school where is the oversight

My son was enrolled in Eugene Field Elementary School for less than a month for his Pre-K year. We withdrew him because he was being mistreated by both teachers and students and the principal was unwilling to deal with issues that arose and blamed us for my son's "problems". He has minor autism. They knew of his autism at enrollment. And he's attended a school environment since he was 2 1/2, but when we started noticing changes in his demeanor, I brought it up to the principal, she got defensive and hostile. In the few weeks he was enrolled, his teacher made him stay in class when he was sick, not once but twice. He had four "accidents" in his clothing on one of these occasions and they never called to inform me or to let me come pick him up. He had been potty trained for nearly two years and four "accidents" in one day was not common. Once I got him home and found out, I took him to the doctor and he had the flu. He even had a fever when I brought him home! In January, we enrolled him in Porter ECDC and he improved greatly. However, his trust for teachers is not what it once was. I now homeschool him because he's no longer eligible to attend Porter ECDC due to his age. -1 rating

Not that great of a school breaks my heart to have to send my kids their my sons get told they can’t go to the bathroom when they really need which has resulted in multiple accidents in their pants which they never did before I put them in Robertson and have had to sit in wet pants until end of school ,my children have came home multiple times saying they did not eat lunch because they was at the end of the line and everything was gone when they got up to the front so they had to sit and watch everyone one else eat they do nothing about kids picking or bullying my kids even after my kids tell the teacher but will quickly get on to mine for being “mean” back. my kids went from A’s& B’s at epic charter to not making any sort of progress can barley get a response from teachers among a lot of other problems my kids use to love school now they hate it and it’s a fight because they do not want to go to that school.

Horrible school as far as leadership. The teachers were great, but were limited by the principal. She was rarely at the school and when she was, she was in her luxury office with the door shut. Avoids any type of communication. Extremely pretentious. Suspends students without even letting parents know. I had to threaten a lawsuit to get my child’s record cleared. Do not recommend.

Hello my name is hidden for many many reasons but here is my statement after graduation…The teachers honestly… one is very disrespectful, that even almost a whole class had to correct them on their actions and one can’t control their students to the point where I can’t learn and it’s worse than my old school because of the reasons I will give, they can handle problems well I guess… but they give you detention for the smallest thing possible like and short skirt only 1cm above the knee and can’t emotionally help you a lot (only a little bit but not so much to change the problem) and I struggle so much with the students and even when I told a teacher I trusted I don’t think anything changed but that school changed me to realize that I can become a better person and students there taught me that but overall it’s a good school for work and knowledge but emotionally and physically maybe not a good school for that Sincerely yours-unknown

The principal and teacher Diane Mcgowen are the best you will ever find
