Minett Elementary School

I got dragged by my hair and the principal did NOT do anything Im luckily out of the school

I’m very disappointed with our experience at this school. I was never informed of any behavior concerns while they were happening. Instead, issues were allowed to build up until they became “a big deal” that suddenly required paperwork and formal processes. Teachers from 1st grade and up have been cold and unwelcoming, making it difficult for my child to feel supported. The administration is extremely unhelpful, and getting any information or assistance feels like pulling teeth. Communication and compassion are severely lacking here, and it has left us feeling frustrated and unheard.

Purefoy is fantastic. The teachers are chosen for being loving first and academics second. My kids have thrived here. This school was ranked 10/10 when we bought our house in 2020. I believe the high number of students with disabilities has brought the scores down. The number of low income students has gone up some too. The leadership here is excellent, and we feel very blessed to have this as our neighborhood school.
