There are very few teachers here that are decent. I used to go to this school, and I was supposed to get help with my work because I have ADHD and the teachers did nothing about it, so they basically let my grades slip and I failed everything. Also there is so much bullying, judgment, racism, and ha
Posted by a community member on 12/29/2025I have a 4th grader and 2nd grader here and cannot say enough good things about the school. We have loved every teacher and had great support for my son’s learning challenges. We will miss it when the time comes!
Posted by a parent on 11/22/2025This staff at this school needs a major rehab. Admin has poor rapport with parents, they don’t hold their teachers accountable and fail to identify children who may have learning challenges. Our experience was a nightmare. I wouldn’t send an animal to this school if I had a choice.
Posted by a parent on 8/4/2025The school was performing good but nowadays it’s not up to the mark. Teachers won’t care much about kids overall development. Concerts are not for everyone. Good for teacher pet student. Lot of bullying especially in school bus and school is not much concerned about these things.
Posted by a parent on 3/21/2025Teachers do not listen and are very quick to assign blame to students of color. I am disgusted by the 1st grade teachers and their attempts to label.

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageBoth of my children are enrolled at Pinchbeck Elementary, and their progress has been truly remarkable. We're incredibly grateful to the office staff, administration, and especially the kind and dedicated teachers who support them every day.I sincerely hope the school's rating continues to rise in the coming year — it truly deserves a 10/10.Thank you,SayedParent Review7mo ago - Longan Elementary School

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageHello! Former student here; This school did nothing when I told the administrative team I was getting bullied. The admins did absolutely nothing when I told them that I had gotten beat on the head by a girl (with her water bottle), that I got called names, and that people laughed at me all the time. Maybe the admins have changed since then though! I do not know, it has been about 4 years so... The teachers are extremely nice here though! Especially the 4th/5th grade teachers (in my experience.) They are always willing to help your child succeed, and will always make learning fun! I do suggest this school, you just have to check in with your child every once in a while to make sure they aren't getting bullied!Other Review3y ago - Three Chopt Elementary School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe gifted program at this school is not diverse in any way. The gifted program teachers are condescending, unhelpful, rude, stuck up and cruel. This “gifted” program is designed to help white people get ahead, uphold white privilege and stop minorities from having any kind of chance. Typical white people.Parent Review6mo ago - Springfield Park Elementary School
