Buena Vista Elementary Enhanced Option

I switched my daughter from HJ this year as a third grader and went to private school in fear that she would be behind. Lord knows I can't afford the school she is at now, but I also couldn't afford her being behind. My daughter was at HJ since Preschool. Preschool through Kindergarten were actually ok. She had an older teacher who was a great teacher. When she switched to first and second, it became apparent that the school had a behavior issue. Kids at lunch were cussing and dancing inappropriately. Every time I came to her school, teachers were yelling at the children. She never had homework or papers that showed what she done in class. She made straight A's that I believe were mostly due to her behavior. I started tutoring her at home and she was still behind. When I questioned teachers, I was always told she was excelling. Other than the most important aspects of school, the music teacher is beyond awesome.

My son is in 3rd grade and we have had a great experience. His confidence has grown immensely and he is learning so many new things.

This school is bad and i cried from it.

I have had a magnificent time at this school. The teachers are caring and push their students to do their best. It will be a very sad day when my child has to transition to another school.
