J G Hening Elementary School

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

I graduated from this school, the students here never made me feel left out and I learned a lot in one year.

I was employed at the school. This place has a notorious reputation for being a poor school. I worked there for a year and was forced to resign due to the principal, giving me such a poor review after several struggles with behavior, problems, ranging from students, destroying my classroom and fits of rage, throwing chairs, and fighting each other. I mentally could not handle the stress, and it affected my professionalism. There were teachers who disrespected other teachers asked inappropriate title, nine violation questions such as Are you gay? they would also refuse to assist in any disciplinary action when extreme behaviors hindered the class from learning. even during a classroom observation, the principal chose not to intervene with two kindergarten students who were physically attacking each other, and I had to be in the middle of it. I thought that this was incredibly unprofessional, and was a chosen act to have me look bad, so he could prove that I wasn’t meeting the standards of a teacher who could continue working for CCPS. after being placed on administrative leave pending my non-renewal of my contract, I chose to resign and put the matter to rest for my own well-being. Now I’ve just been left, struggling to make ends meet as a teacher working in a lower paying job than before, w-paying job than before, with my reputation hindered due to false and one-sided accusations. I wish the school no luck, and I hope reform comes down the line to help the students at the school progress forward and not backwards each year with new administrations and continuing behavior and disruptions throughout the school year each day.
