Emmanuel Baptist Christian Learning CR

This school has been amazing; it does not get the credit it deserves. It is newly built about a few years ago and it's a very clean school, very safe entry into schools like its two access points to get into, some might not like that, but I prefer knowing it's hard to get into the school for someone who might want to hurt someone. At this time, everyone qualifies for free breakfast/lunch. They have a small military liaison group in the school, but it is nice. My son has started school here from 5k and has had nothing but excellent teachers. They are all so welcoming, they are easy to talk to, all staff members are all involved (You can definitely tell, it is small town vibes which is nice). Everyone knows everyone. They offer tutoring services along with transportation for those students. Morning drop offs are a breeze honestly. This school has truly been nothing but perfect for the time of us living here as we are a military family. A lot of diversities which I enjoy being we come from big city life.

My 2 children have both attended CES since K4 with no issues. We have always been strong supporters & volunteers. That has since ended with the hiring of the new Principal, Mrs. Pryzbyla, we have seen a downward, negative shift in the school environment to the point we & a few other families have removed our children from the school. Mrs. Pryzbyla does NOT care to get to know the children or the parents, & when parents bring concerns to her multiple times (by appt) she does NOTHING to address them. We asked to have our son switched to another classroom & was told she REFUSED to switch ANY student NO MATTER WHAT the situation was. We also went to the KCSC Office looking for help & spoke with Mr. Hopkins who tried to resolve the problem but for a PRINCIPAL to tell a DISTRICT DIRECTOR she won't do something- should be classified as insubordination. But it was never even blinked at. I am writing this because I want other parents to know how we were treated. How CES & KCSD did nothing to help. Change needs to happen at that school & it needs to start with hiring a new Principal.

I don't know what I would have done without this wonderful school
