Laurel Mountain Elementary School

My son has loved his Kindergarten year at Jollyville! His teacher sends weekly emails, had a wonderful parent teacher conference, and communicates well! She really “sees” my son and has helped him feel proud of himself.

Caraway is a hidden gem tucked away in the area. The other schools in the area have over double the students. You can not put a price on smaller class sizes and the environment of everyone knowing everyone. Caraway is a small and nurturing school. Academics are great but not too much pressure so the kids can still be kids (an issue friends from neighboring schools are having). They have chickens and goats that the kids help take care of. I cannot recommend enough.

Very happy with PSE all around. Great staff, great PTA, great parents, great community involvement.

I used to love Thoa school. But bullying has gotten out of hand. My son was being verbally bullied. Yes, he threw the kids food out of his hands because he was being really disrespectful. So the kids punches my child twice in the face. They blame my kid. Don't hold the other child accountable. And thats it. Nada. No accountability, no discipline. Im ok with that. We will be transferring schools next year. This school has lost its class and has turned trashy with the people.And their teachers flip a lot. Or they never have enough in one grade so one teacher is struggling. Don't do it. There's pond springs and jollyville right down the street.

With two kiddos in this school, I feel so confident saying this school is doing so much right. The teachers are quality, caring and dedicated. The administrators are always will to listen, grow and hear from families and teachers. It’s a wonderful community to be a part of!

The school has a long way to go.
