Bluffdale School

I’ve given Bluffdale a good chance. We went through shut down at this school. I was worried about my children’s education, but decided to keep giving it a chance. 2nd grade teacher kept embarrassing my child in front of the class. Name calling my child and others. The teacher denied it to the principal when I went to the school for help. I should have pulled my child. But I was scared she wouldn’t get an education, so we stayed. Name calling continued. Telling the kids they were babies. Or still a “kinder” (kindergartener) I encouraged other mothers to call the school when this teacher told their kids that they were “not smart” but nothing was ever done about it. Different teacher taught my child in second grade that Santa wasn’t real. Talked about gender identity. And asked us to feed our children packing peanuts as part of an assignment. Teacher couldn’t ever explain why though. The kids were also taught that the letter W makes a “who” sound. I called the school sent so many emails to the district that year. It was silly. My child’s confidence was shot after that. The next year, I saw improvement in confidence. But not too much else. I went to the teachers for help a few times, but just felt like I was bothering them from the reactions I got. The next school year really started to make me nervous. My child came home with a bunch of work to do at home. The only thing I could figure that was being taught during class time was a podcast called 6 min. The kids were asked questions and tested on this podcast. I listened to it once, and I do not understand what the educational value was. Sure it was fun, but no other learning was happening during class time.

We love this school! The teachers have been great. The principal handles bullying situations appropriately. The PTA is fantastic. It’s safe. It’s clean. It’s a great school!

Awful, worst school by far and the teachers and faculty must have their heads in the dirt.

The classes are way too big. So if your child is average, they won't receive attention. This is our 3rd school and this has been far the worst. Even the front desk doesn't really know hats going on. I think they are just over capacitated.

I had two children go through this school and never had a problem. The teachers are wonderful and they all spend so much time with the kids.
