I love the 2 teachers I know so far this is my kids 1st and last year attending sharp the principal is very unprofessional and over his head he does not know how to talk to parents or the children.
Posted by a parent on 9/20/2017Indeed this school is a great school. They have wonderful teachers, i'll recommend this school anyday, my son started from pre-k and he is in 3rd grade now and doing so well. My only wish is for the state to do a renovation on that school.
Posted by a parent on 9/10/2014This is a GREAT school..Eventhough the area it's in is not like it use to be...They have some really great teachers and the principal greets you and shake your hand.My daughter comes from Oakforest and its an optional school, they did not have teachers with patience for kids.

Posted by a parent on 8/25/2014The attitude of the office staff, teachers & principle is so unfriendly. Most of the time when you enter the office, they just look at you instead of saying "Good morning or good evening, may I help you? I encountered an incident there with a teacher as well as the after school care providers that w
Posted by a parent on 8/24/2011Just to be fair I have seen first hand about the way the staff talks to you very badly. The kids fight all the time. When trouble arises they don't take action against all involved. Favorites and intimidation from the parents and staff doesn't follow through on taking care of the entire problem.

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy child is a kindergartner. To me, I honestly think this is the best school for children. I love the small classrooms -- no more than 12 kids are in his class I think. They really teach the kids. He came to the school this year not reading and now he can sound out just about any three letter word and spell it. One thing I can definitely say is this school is ADVANCED. My child has already started cursive writing and is up to ten spelling words a week. They have tests ( math, bible, spelling, reading, etc) They get real grades, not just happy face, sad face, good job, but real grades. I think if you are not going to take the time to reinforce what your child is doing and make sure they do the homework then this may not be the school for you. As I stated this school is tough and advanced in academics, but don't let that deter you or scare you because for some reason your child can learn. They are also strict when it comes to discipline. I am so glad I found this school especially since after care is included. I am telling you that this is by far the best school that your child can go to to get a WONDERFUL loving nurturing educationParent Review11y ago - Elliston Baptist Academy
