Rivermont Elementary School

We understand that bullying will exist regardless of what school children attend - what we do not understand is why it is allowed to continue after being brought to the attention of the school administration and teachers. The office staff is unhelpful and good luck trying to get them to answer a call. This is a school where the teachers that our children had, one in particular, was simply teaching for an easy paycheck and summers off (my assumption based on her performance). When questioned about their accountability and classroom events, the teacher would quickly changed the subject to "issues" our child was causing in the classroom. These "issues" occured on "many different occasions in the prior weeks" but it was not brought to our attention until we address issues that our child was coming home to tell us about. When speaking with the principal, they principal even agreed that it was inappropriate to address the issues in the manner she did and it made it seem like it was only a way to get the focus off of her. I cannot recommend highly enough to NOT attend this school if you can manage it. I believe that the superintendent over this school however is great and will be working on correcting the issues, but until that time - try to get into a different school.

I'm a student do not send your kid here I was happy at first but now I regret it.

Best school ever! We were at another public school in Chattanooga and this was the change we needed. I wish my older child could have experienced this school. From the moment you walk in it’s the best environment from the front office to the classroom!! I would recommend this School to any new parent!!

We won't be returning next year. The administration here is awful. They let kids do whatever they want if their parents are doners. The curriculum is mediocre and the tuition just keeps rising. Every year they say it's so they won't have to raise it again. Then they raise it again. They're building a long overdue gym that will also hold theater productions. Then why did we spend so much to upgrade the sound system in the space currently being used? There are better options out there for the almost 18k they're now charging.
