Highland Park Elementary School

Some of the teachers and staff are amazing and long time served. This is an affluent neighborhood school with structured and organized standards, good resources, nice building and playground, security and good support staff. Great PTA participation and parent communication. Just a few questionable teachers but overall an excellent elementary. Exceptional teachers include Houtz (K), Whitehead (5th), Richards (Librarian). Great chess club and family events.

absolutely terrible! Not just the experiences I have had with the teachers, but the principle as well. I've noticed they are really good at changing the subject instead of answering questions. Problems will get worse with no desire to fix them.

Really great teachers! Especially the kindergarten teachers are very nurturing and communicative.

We had several bullying incidents on the bus and at the school several times. It seems nothing gets done to the bullies. But the child that responds gets introuble. The BULLIES are the problem! The school personel doesn't know how to handle bullies!.

I think this is a great school for children who do not struggle with behavioral or learning disabilities. The principle lacks experience and tolerance for children struggling with mental health. She struggles respecting the opinions of others when dealing with situations where is child is a clearly struggling with mental health disorder and is quick to send a child home if she doesn’t have the staff to deal with the behavior.
