J G Hening Elementary School

This is the worse school ever the stuffing sucks so bad I had to take my son out and switch to henrico school and he is doing so much better they don’t know how to work with black kids

Mrs. Toney is an excellent teacher. She has taught all of my children over the years and has treated all of them like family. My oldest is 25 and still talks about how Mrs. Toney is her favorite teacher. She cares about her students. We invite her to our cookouts and birthday parties and she always shows up. She makes learning fun!

This school if full of staff that does not care about kids. The few that do have no voice and are usually the ones who don't work here very long. They claim to be all hands on deck but no one has any idea what is actually going on in the classrooms. Bullying is bad and the staff do not care until it gets to the point where kids are struggling with their mental health and mental health providers become involved. Then they start to want to listen when your kid is diagnosed with depression and is having suicidal thoughts. Terrible school and careless staff if you can send your kids elsewhere.

“This is a great school. The staff truly works with your child and stays actively involved in their learning and growth. The teachers are wonderful, caring, and dedicated. I also love that the school offers many cultural programs that help students learn about and appreciate the different cultures represented within the school community. It’s an amazing school to be a part of, and I highly recommend it.”

Love the tight knit feel that the teachers, staff and administration provide! Hopkins has some of the best teachers in Chesterfield.
