Waxpool Elementary

Great small school in a large county.

I hated my 5th grade teacher. He Snooped through my desk and found a note I didn’t write and yelled at me for it without any evidence of me writing a swear word. I wish I told my mom about this when it happened.

I can only speak for the Head Start/STEP program. However, what I will say is that our child started on a Thursday, and by Monday his teacher, the case manager, and Vice Principal had already decided to push our child out of the school without any prior communication with us. We feel this school is not well-equipped to handle young special education students.

Eh it was alright, transferred here when I was in 3rd grade and it was pretty good, but if you live in the district then just please don't send your kids to eagle ridge middle school bro like it's so awful there, just transfer to a different middle school or something it's not worth it.

Moorefield Station Elementary is a great school with a warm, welcoming environment. Principal Williams has really grown into her leadership role over the past few years and assembled a strong administrative team. They make an effort to be seen on rolling desks in hallways and classrooms as often as possible, speaking to children by name. Although there are quite a few new teachers, now that COVID is long gone and the transfers after the prior principal retired are over, the staff seem to be very content. The PTO has increased community involvement, especially in the past school year. There are academic and social programs offered and parents, as well as teachers, attend special programs (Bingo, Math Night, Musicals). The school now has great monthly Shark-of-the-Month assemblies which build community and celebrate student achievement. Overall, Moorefield Station is a wonderful place for young learners to thrive!
