Shaw Elementary School

Wish there was more advanced kids here

This is the worst school ever they are very unprofessional and I think that you work for them versus them working for you and your children. This school had over 24 cases of covid within 2 weeks and still wouldn't close down and if you take your kid out of school for being sick they try to make you think they can punish you for caring for someone you gave birth to and take care of the teachers are rude and the principal and vice principal do absolutely nothing about it the lunch items are not for lunches they have lunches and the school is unsanitary they don't even give home workout they don't even have after school programs to help a child who is in need and then I mind you again that the teachers are rude they're too busy trying to deliver an attitude then trying to deliver success to your children.

If you’re thinking about enrolling your kids to this school PLEASE DONT!! This is the first and last year my kids will attend this school.There’s no communication from the school what so ever!! The teachers are ALWAYS absent, they don’t communicate with the apps they recommend to use or send any kind of papers with information we need to know. For being an elementary school they don’t have much fun either, they don’t take them outside for recess at all maybe twice a week and if you have small children in kinder 3rd 4th 5th grade like I do you know they have a lot of energy and need it, yes learning is important but they are small children that also need to run around. All I had with this school is bad experiences!! My kids also deals with bullying everyday and it’s brought up to them plenty of times and do the teachers do anything about it NO it’s gotten to bad that they don’t want to go to school every because they know they will get hit by their classmates!! Safety after school is also out the window. My son stayed after school for one of their after school activities and pick up time has always been 4:30pm but there’s sometimes they decide to let them out 10 minutes early and they kick them out the premises even if the parent isn’t there AND there’s times I pull up right at 4:30 and there’s not even teachers there watching the kids being picked up THATS SUPER DANGEROUS FOR A SMALL CHILD!! Anyone can just take them. School lunches are also cold and by that I mean there’s time they get hamburgers still frozen and if they speak up about it they just tell them to suck it up, my kids come home starving ( that’s why they take lunches now) The whole staff at this school is just mean to all the kids. My oldest in 5th grade hears and seen when teacher yells at other students including the principal and this isn’t just my son seeing this it also other students. My kids use to love school before coming here now they never want to go to school and I worry about their mental health. I’ve talked to many other parents that feel the exact same way.

We love bj smith! My daughter is in 2nd grade and has gone there sonce prek! We have loved all her teachers so far and mrs goss the principal is awsome! Only down side ive had is the guy PE teacher is definitely not people friendly and my child has complained about him a ton and has told me how he is in class and i definitely dont agree with how he runs things or how he treats the kids.
