Northside Elementary School

I really don't like this school my son wich is in kinder came home and told me a classmate had slap him with the teacher's consent! when abs talk to the school and they schedule me a noon meeting to talk about the issue, turns out that supposedly the teacher said that she just told him that classmate was going to hit him if he didn't stop bothering... my son told me he was just talking and was told to put he's had down.. any how they are saying it didn't happen that way I don't know why my son would lie about something like this if he would tell me he likes he's teacher!! And he wasn't afraid to tell school police what had happen, just really disappointed

There are some great teachers there who actually care about their students and their education, but like with any place, one bad apple can spoil the bunch and in this case, there are only a handful of good apples. Majority of the staff are Hispanic, and hate to put it this way, but if you aren't Hispanic or part of the Hispanic crowd, you are not on the in's and will be treated as such. I have been treated rudely by several staff members, and have ran into issues with teachers. This place does not run like a well-oiled machine. Poor communication with the parents from the school administration. Very poor response back from the administration when you try to reach out to them personally to address issues. They have these kids and the whole building functioning like a poorly orchestrated prison. (literally badge in, badge out of what seems like every door.) Forget going to any school functions and anything going smoothly. Honestly, pulling kiddos out asap and going back to homeschooling. I put them in public school due to personal circumstances and wanting to give them a year to try it out, but this was by far the worst decision ever. My children went in knowing more than when they are leaving. We are in fact having to take a step back and go over old materials we already covered before they stepped foot in that school. My children have been begging me to come home and stay home to do homeschool. They don't even like going anymore, which is sad/scary considering they were so excited to be going to school. I feel like this place has really ruined the idea of public school for them ever again.
