Edward Byrom Elementary School

If your child is a person of color or special needs do not send them to this school. A kid broke my child’s arm and even made a special needs student with Down syndrome have to transfer due to extreme bullying. After several times of reporting to the staff what is going on, the staff and teachers always pick the side of white people. They do not care about the well-being or education of your child. Despite the child bullying my son has a bad reputation at school, the school decided to not do anything, nor contact the child’s parents. The majority of the teachers do not care about the students education but rather just want them to get to next grade level. The teachers also do not care about building a welcoming education for students of color (black and Hispanic). Most of the teachers will turn a blind eye if they see an injustice happening between a person of color and a white person. The only good teacher my son has had was Mrs. Davidson, who always cared about my sons education and well-being and didn’t fail to contact me about the concerns she had about my child wether that was educational/mental health. She always made sure to include me in my child’s education and didn’t turn a blind eye when injustice was happening.

Our experience at Tualatin has been amazing. Our son has greatly excelled academically and we find the staff to be helpful and caring - willing to go the extra mile to make sure each students’ needs are met. Would definitely recommend this school!

Really wonderful place to educate your young ones. The staff are extremely dedicated and kind. It’s uplifting working in a Christian environment, hearing the teachers and students praying. Lots of field trips and stem activities too.
