Bluff Ridge School

My daughter attended this school for kindergarten and first grade. In both cases she had excellent teachers who had to manage a lot more students than they should. Regardless, both teachers excelled and provided my student with the extra attention and support she needed. My kiddo is an anxious one, and a quick text or email to the teacher always resulted in the extra attention (sometimes she just needs a hug!) she needed to feel safe, loved, and ready to learn.Academically, my student received everything she needed! Speech therapy, star reading class, and probably one other specialty program I'm not recalling. Would I like more special attention for my student? Yes, but what she received was enough to improve all of her test scores and keep her at grade level despite her unusually stressful home circumstances. Really can't say enough good things about every teacher and faculty member we interacted with here. Big shout outs to Thorne and Gonzalez, both of whom are excellent teachers.

In a nutshell I use to go here when I was in 1st-2nd grade, this was time when my family was struggling, and having this school be horrible to me was awful, I didn't make a single friend, it felt unwelcoming, the teachers hated me for little reason, even though I did what was told. Not to mention the fact one of my teachers made me cry, and scolded me for showing normal eight year old behavior, this is just a little bit of what happened, but a cherry on top is the fact that my dad who was simply busy and wasn't thinking about me currently forgot to pick me up, (He is a very loving father and this was the ONLY, and ONLY time he had ever forgot to pick me up after school) After not seeing my dads car I sat down for like, at least two hours, it took two hours until someone in the office, which had an AMAZING view on the bench I was sitting on to finally notice me. But, I hope from than the school has gotten better, thanks for reading my review.
