Johns Elementary School

This school supports bullying of the students by teachers...unfortunately. The principals doesn’t do anything to protect the students except intimidate them more

My son attended Pre-K 4 2025 August 13th and August 14th when I went to pick him up on August 14th at 3:30 p.m. I was unable to find anyone that could point me to where he would be released at after meeting with the officer on school property I was notified by another parent that my 4-year-old was wandering down the street four blocks over. I ran to Big Street which is one block over and sure enough three blocks down was my 4-year-old wandering crying, scared and disorientated. I picked him up and ran back to the school where I was informed by the principal that their policy is to release any student that is a walker and have them escorted by a teacher one block down and released regardless if they are 3 years old, 4 years old, kindergarten, first grade, second grade, and so on. I'm now attempting to file a police report and I have submitted a grievance to the school directly. This is absolutely true and I'm in disbelief with the principal's attitude that somehow it was our fault because we didn't have a car to pick him up in. So he was labeled as a walker. Not once was the principal concerned with the fact that they had a 4-year-old. My 4-year-old lost almost five blocks down where he could have been abducted by a predator attacked by a stray dog or hit by traffic

Fui a la oficina a firmar un documento de mi hijo y cuando sali de la oficina le dije a mi hijo que nos fuéramos. Mi hijo agarró par de legos y en ese instante una señora que estaba en un escritorio le dijo que esos legos no eran de él que ahí los dejara. Cuando salimos me acordé que yo le había comprado unos legos hacia par de días. Volví a casa y efectivamente si eran los mismos que la señora le quitó a mi hijo. Tuve que volver con resibo en mano a por los juguetes de mi hijo. Me dio demasiado coraje porque esa señora no tuvo el tacto de lidiar con un niño fue nadamas como para acusarlo y hacerlo sentir mal. Esta escuela carece de buenos líderes, todos en esa escuela tienen tendencias a dar órdenes gritando. Creo que están impuestos a tratar a los padres como les da la gana y que nadie les diga nada.

The worst experience for me and my kids at this horrible school. Mcduffy needs to be fired and the principal Adam’s. When you hire teachers you need to know if they actually want to teach and have communication and social skills with kids and not for just a paycheck.

To express my serious concerns regarding the environment It has become evident that there is ongoing harassment and mistreatment directed toward Black students within the institution.Despite these issues being brought to light, the administration has failed to take appropriate action. There have been instances where racial slurs are used, yet the principal and assistant principal have refused to address these incidents or foster an environment where children can learn and grow safely. Furthermore, the behavior of certain groups within the school is deeply concerning.I strongly advise against enrolling children in this environment, as the current leadership and specific groups occupying the school do not demonstrate the necessary care or respect for all students.
