T L Pink Elementary School

I love,love ,love this school. Thank you to every teacher, thank you for the work they put into their students, my daughter loves this school and we, her parents, are among them, a deep bow to you, dear teachers. A huge thank you to the bus drivers. It's a shame that we're moving, my daughter, when she started attending this school, didn't know a word of English, a month later she already understood everything and her grades were excellent, there's so much I want to tell you, but I can't put it into words. Thank you.

My son was sent to this school for his summer school. He was so excited to go to summer school. After, the first day, I ask him how his day went. He told me that "the principal said I am too expensive to be in summer school". I asked him why would the principal say that. His response was "I don't know, may be because I am the only student with a brown face in my class". There was a mix up in his summer school registration and he had to be with the principal for a while that first day, until things were sorted out. To say I was shocked was an understatement. Why a principal would make such statement to a child (he's PreK) baffles me. I followed up with that principal, she apologized and said she couldn't remember saying something like that to him. But he had a very nice experience with his teacher. When I asked about his teacher, he responded "My teacher is really nice and is not like my principal". He didn't want to go to the school the next day until I assured him that he wouldn't be with the principal again. Thankfully, he's not a regular student in that school and I can't wait for him to finish the summer school and leave the school

I LOVE TAYLOR RAY!!!!!! Mr. Perez should be awarded Principal of the Year again. The teachers should be named Teachers of the Year they are so amazing. The entire staff is amazing. The curriculum is top notch they care about their students education so much. They offer before and after school tutoring. I love how we are In constant communication with the teachers. I just wish they would use the text Remind 101 services as other school a do. NO COMPLAINTS FROM THIS PARENT I LOVE TAYLOR RAY. I also wish more parents would sign up for PRO as there is only one parent which I feel bad for her.

Fantastic school that has ‘saved’ my child. Shady Oak follows empirically validated literature on what is developmentally appropriate for child learners (unlike public schools which cater to funding$$$, and parochial schools which focus on religion, morals, policies). Excellent school. My child has improved reading dramatically here and is at ease. The environment is inclusive and structured, yet promotes independence. I wish more schools focused on the social/emotional development as much as they do academics. Our kids would be in a much better spot holistically speaking.

This school is WONDERFUL!! The school really promotes a feeling of community among the students, parents, and teachers. It's the only school that my children LOVE and we have been to quite a few. The teachers really foster the love of learning, creativity, and critical thinking.

My daughter was enrolled last school year in PreK3, and our experience was very wonderful. Our daughter really looked forward to going to school every day to learn something new. She did not even want to go home because she loved interacting with her classmates and teachers. The extended daycare program was also incredibly fun for her as well. The supportive and nurturing of the Christian community was greatly felt by us. The classroom set up was comfortable. It had organized learning centers that were safe and clean. My daughter is also enrolled this school year. I highly recommend this school.
