Glen Lea Elementary School

My son started in January of this year with the early special education headstart program. My son is autistic and is very limited to words. I was told by a staff member about how they talk about my son and his hair. Not to mention he's only 3. How dare administration bully a 3 year old? I thought they were specialized in this head start program for students with special needs. Obviously not, but I will be complaining to some higher officials tomorrow. His hair is not a concern of what you should be worried about at work. My son has not even been there 5 months yet and will not be going back.

Wonderful because my children were 3 years in a row in this school and because of the change of direction I had to remove them, it made me very sad because it is an excellent school, the teachers, the staff, the director, they are all very kind people, they helped me a lot. I am very grateful Because of my youngest son's teacher, he arrived not talking much, he had speech problems, he was very shy and they helped him a lot. Thank you. They are wonderful. Keep working as usual.

I enjoyed this school and the teacher and principal support.

Over all a wonderful experience and a great family to be apart of

My daughter started going to Fairfield this year. She started 5th grade there coming from a different school. The first five months of the school year she had to worry about bullying. Four different times I had to go up to the school. My family is a minority here at Fairfield Court. The principal told me I quote " The kids here don't understand. They hear their parents say it. Its the area that we live in." I don't care if its the area that we live in, my daughter was always told not to see color. Our skin may be white and they may be black but we all bleed red. As a parent I can say that I would not want my child to go to this school, but I can say that about many Richmond Public Schools.

If you want bed bugs, send your child here. If you want to have to fight for your child’s IEP to be implemented, then again, send your child here. I can’t even get a phone call back from the principal. Extremely disappointed in this school. Bed bug Sheppard is what I call it.
