Obadiah Knight Elementary School

My child first year was last year. He's in special education and that department at this school is horrendous! They are not trained and the nurse isn't very professional either. I do not recommend special needs children go here! Plz I'm warning you

Please consider other options. We moved from another district. And to be hones my son is not getting quality education here. He mentioned that everything he learned in 3rd grade is just being teached now. His teacher punishes the whole class for other kids misbehaving. He hates it there...Thankfully he will no longer be attending this school for 5th grade.

I didn’t have a good experience. The school tends to sweep issues under the rug. Leaders don’t always practice what they preach.

I had a very disappointing experience with Oak Hill Academy, especially considering how strongly the school markets itself as a place for children with speech delays, ADHD, and other learning differences.We came in expecting a supportive and understanding environment, and instead left feeling confused, judged, and honestly a bit shocked.After just a trial day, I was told my child was not invited back — with very little clear explanation. For a school that specializes in children who may need time to adjust, this felt extremely premature and contradictory to what they advertise. Children with communication challenges don’t always show their best on day one — that’s exactly why families seek out schools like this.What was most concerning was the lack of professionalism and communication. When my child was struggling to express something on the playground, I experienced a moment from a staff member that felt dismissive — including an eye roll — rather than supportive or patient. As a parent, that is incredibly unsettling, especially in a school that is supposed to be equipped to handle communication challenges with care and understanding.Instead of guidance or collaboration, I was left with more questions than answers.If this school is truly designed to support children with different learning needs, there should be more patience, clearer communication, and a willingness to work with families — especially on a first visit.Unfortunately, our experience did not reflect the inclusive and supportive environment that is promoted.I would not recommend based on our experience.

I was honestly really happy with this school for my child. The teachers actually seemed to care about the students and would take extra time to help if someone was struggling, which made a big difference. The classes were challenging but not overwhelming, and my kid came home actually understanding what they learned instead of just being confused. I also liked how the school had a lot of activities and clubs, so students could find things they enjoy and make friends. Communication from the staff was pretty good too, so I always knew what was going on. Overall, it felt like a safe and supportive place where my child could learn and grow.
