McDowell High School

Excellent Elementary School! Mrs. Pora was the best teacher ever!!

Amazing school, never bullied, great lunches, teachers are willing to make simple personal accommodations.

Great school, awesome teachers and have many great memories at Grover over the last 10 years and counting. Teachers are very supportive, a lot of family engagement activities, and over the last few years have added more programs/clubs for the students which is great. They also offer extra help throughout the school day in very small groups for students who need just a little extra push.

Starting at St. Jude school I was very cautious with my son and on high alert because he was he was treated very badly at his pervious school. But my sons St. Jude teacher (M-F) 4t class, was really amazing and cared for my son just like all the other students. I have nothing but positive things to say about all the staff that I've encountered here.

Absolutely horrible experience with this school. My son attended their M-F 3T preschool class. And children at 3 are usually hyper and not the best at following directions. As expected from a 3 year old, but my son at home was pretty good at listening and helping out. Well, his teacher at St. George would voice to me that my son was always hyper and disruptive during class time.. which is understandable concerns. Except when she would talk to me about my son it was always in a way of disgust. As if my son was absolutely awful.Meanwhile when I pulled him from St. George and started him elsewhere his new teacher only had great things to say about him and how he’s so helpful and kind.But what really made me pull him out of this school is when, during dismissal (in the winter) it was 40 degrees outside. The teacher approached me with my child and his sleep mat (that usually stays at the school) and she says he had an accidental during nap time. When I look down my child is CRYING because he’s cold and his pants are SOAKED. my child was fully potty trained for a whole year and never had an accident before then… and even if he had an accident, WHY.. WHY would they allow him to walk out in 40 degree weather in pee soaked pants… I asked if he went through his extra clothes and they said no he still had them in his cubby. They had no excuse not to change him before dismissal.When I finally got my son changed.. I asked him what happened. And he said when he asked to use the bathroom his teacher said “shush”. This behavior from A GROWN WOMAN who is supposed to be caring for our children is DISGUSTING
