Read what parents are saying about South Hi Mount Elementary SchoolWe attended SHM all six years and it was the very best experience. Caring, committed staff, and excellent leadership. They have a wonderful principal who was a teacher at this same school, and it attracts the best teachers in the district. Safe and beautiful campus as well. Many of our friends chose private but we chose SHM and couldn't be happier.
Posted by a parent on 8/19/2022My son lives with his mother, I have made myself clear that I am restricted by her from any info on my son's day to dad or even a week to week status in all happenings, studies, events that may occur/occurred in his time at SHM. My restrictions are not court ordered rather personal order by her for his/mine relations only. I don't blame SHM nor its facility for this, but I do blame whomever responsible for access to Offical SHM Web for not designing it for dads that do give a rats,,, that are not in the same zip code.. I have tried the class chat, w no success and its completed app. I used parent port, but no teachers use it, and the Offical page does not offer any info like this. I do not wish any more work be placed on the under-paid and overlooked teachers/future builders of America but it drives me up the wall not knowing about my sons, ex: "spelling test" that I helped him study for, via phone. My sons 4th grade teach went far far above and beyond we she allows(ed) me w info that most shouldn't have due to high amounts of harassment from parents w perfect children. Thus is the only way I knew "if I choose to use tis tool" what exactly my son was/was not producing. I realize this tool is not a tool anymore for obvious reason all I'm asking for is a source of my sons performance/lack of. I am pro for teachers especially ones that are involved w my son. My hat is off to each and every one of yall!! If it were my choice I'd pay yall 4x "?amount", allow 2x paid vacation, and would instill stronger laws of # of student/teacher, for yall are truly "more human than human"ThanksAdam S.
Posted by a parent on 10/26/2015This school's administration is just horrible. They do not listen, they treat your child as a number, they bully and patronize. If you can avoid this school at all, please do so. I feel horrible for the kids that are stuck at this school without parents who care. And, 15 minutes of recess for kindergartners for the ENTIRE DAY?! Ridiculous.
Posted by a parent on 9/26/2014My Son attends South High Mount Elementary. The only problem my wife and I have had came up more than once.. My son like other children have received sad faces.. My sons teacher will tend , to explain, why the sad face was given in front of all the other children at class room door while picking up children at the end of the day. We don't feel as parents that this should be addressed in this manner. The teacher should address the parent in the class room with child after class or set up some kind of meeting. I have spoken to the principal about this and she did say she would speak to the teacher several month back. I don't understand why this keeps occurring.
Posted by a parent on 5/27/2013Great programs offered by SHM(FWAS). Speach therapy was also help for the oldest of my 2 kids. Both have attend SHM since Pre-K. Great caring teachers.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe had 2 kids go through North Hi Mount between 2016-19. Recommend this school enthusiastically and without reservation. It's a delightful, warm and encouraging place. They walk admirably that difficult terrain of unconditional support without enabling. Your kids can get anywhere from here.Parent Review4y ago - Tanglewood Elementary School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageTanglewood is like a new school since the new principal took over in 2020. She is dynamic and invested in the success of ALL students. She embraces all parents and treats them equally, unlike her predecessor. Tanglewood has had its facilities upgraded in the last few years and has become much more diverse student population. It has a much more inviting feel and I attribute that to the administrative staff, teachers and a new generation of parents.Parent Review1y ago - Jo Kelly Sp Ed

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is not accredited by any organization other than the Lutheran Church. It does not require their teachers to have teaching credentials and the teachers are paid $20 an hour. The school caters to Church members and uses non-members children (who pay double the tuition rate) to subsidize their budget without making them a priority. They do not address bullying unless it is the child of a Church member or a parent threatens to take legal action against the school. There is no support for special needs students and communication between the teachers/administration/parents is erratic. I would strongly discourage any non-Church member from enrolling in the school.Parent Review10mo ago - University Christian Church Weekday School
