Wells Station Elementary School

Memphis Heritage Christian School has been in existence for 20 years. We are now serving our second generation of students. We look forward to serving you!

The school is pretty good as far as Memphis public schools go but there are much better private options available. There is a lot of tension between the traditional and optional students and there is bullying by the traditional students. If you can’t home school or pay for private just make sure you are there as often as possible to keep an eye on how things are done.

I went to this school for five years starting in 1961. I have a masters in education and just retired as an elementary school teacher. It was because of the positive experiences at this school that I wanted to become a teacher. I am moving back to Memphis area in early summer and hope to volunteer at this school in the future. From looking at test scores I think I could be of help.

My husband and I have significant concerns about the quality of education and environment at this school. In my experience, the school's focus and support seem to be unevenly distributed, with the dual language program receiving more attention and resources. Meanwhile, traditional classes appear to be overlooked, leading to a lack of investment in the well-being and success of those students. Furthermore, I have consistently observed cleanliness issues throughout the school, which can negatively impact students' health and learning. Unfortunately, I have also experienced unfriendly and dismissive interactions with some teachers, who have expressed negative sentiments about students in a manner that is unprofessional and unacceptable. As a parent, it is disheartening to see my child's educational experience compromised in this way. Therefore, I am actively exploring alternative options for my child's education, where they can receive the support, resources, and positive learning environment they deserve."
