Former student of this school, definitely my least favorite school and I was very relieved to leave this school at the end of fourth grade. The uniforms are terrible (and pointless....) the teachers have absolutely no clue what to do with autistic students like me (I was mostly nonverbal) and I was
Posted by a community member on 8/8/2022The staff at this school truly care about the well being of each and every child.
Posted by a teacher on 10/28/2013I went to this elementary school for all 6 years (kindergarten-5th) and I absolutely loved it. I'm a freshman in high school now and I definitely would not be where I am now (all honors classes) if it weren't for this school's preparation.

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWould not recommend this scroll for student's with an IEP. Would not recommend this school for out of staye teachers moving to the area, the culture is not accepting of newcomers and not open to new ideas.. I personally have never felt more unwelcomened, and dis valued as a professional.Teacher Review1y ago - Centennial Elementary School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI'm extremely disappointed with our experience at this school. The lack of homework and ineffective teaching methods meant my kids barely learned anything. To make matters worse, the principal was uncooperative and dismissive of our concerns. Unfortunately, the teachers were overwhelmed by the behavioral issues of some students, which created a difficult learning environment. My kids were bullied, and I believe the school failed to provide them with the support they needed. As a minority family, we felt unwelcome and marginalized in Dickson County.Parent Review9mo ago - Special Services

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageHorrible experience. As stated in another review, administrators will lie. They are mean and uncaring. My son was traumatized by this school, and I regret ever enrolling him. They should not be caring for children.Parent Review1y ago - Sullivan Central Elementary School
