Hopkins Road Elementary School

TERRIBLE TERRIBLE TERRIBLE TERRIBLE TERRIBLE TERRIBLE TERRIBLE

Broad Rock has caring staff and administration dedicated to helping their students succeed.

I used to come her and it was a good school.

Please explain the reason why the reviews are rated at 3.5 almost a 4 . But the test scores are severely below average. This is an oxymoron. To me the kids are not learning or not interested in learning. This just baffles me . With these type of scores should be frowned upon. The school board member in this district should be totally ashamed and embarrassed. Or are they afraid they wound be relected. These are scores you see in the city of richmond and Eastern Henrico won't name schools

ILOVE IT THE SCHOOL IS BETTER THEN ANY OTHER SCHOOL

The administration takes issues seriously and is responsive and you can tell they care deeply about the students. Several of the office staff know my son by name and speak to him whenever they see him. The maintenance gentleman is friendly, positive and always chatting with students and giving high fives. There is such positive energy at this school. The test scores are not reflective of a lack of quality education or administration as my experience so far shows dedication to learning all around. Ms. Pittman teaches 1st grade and is fantastic. She is committed to teaching all of the students according to their level and what will help them excell individually and keeps them engaged in learning. She has them work in groups based on their abilities as well so they can help each other. She has great communication with parents and organizes each weeks lessons so that parents can follow along on the class app easily and study with their children using provided study guides. Reading is taught using phonics instead of sight words which is very important for reading success and she focuses heavily on comprehension. I can't say enough good things about this teacher. My son's kindergarten teacher Ms. Jones was just as wonderful. And he talks about his resource teachers being fun and great as well. He loves going to school here.
