Reed Elementary School

There is a no tolerance policy for bullyiing, but it is not enforced against the ones doing the bullying. The children being bullied are the ones who are supposed to have the problem and they are punished. Be it by having to talk to a counsler or giving up thier recess to sit in an office so that they are safe. Not a good school to have children enrolled in.

Great, the school focus on academics is wonderful and structure helps the whole school stay on task! A bit of a grey area when it comes to discipline but I think they are doing their best considering the 75% of the entire school being LOW INCOME families..... they have a before and after school program that is used to watch those kids who dont have a safe place to go after school tooThe parent and teacher communication could be a bit better. Maybe have a once a month night meeting for ALL STAFF to come to and talk about issues together and hopefully the communication can help the way they displine and teach all our children as a whole... at HOME and at SCHOOL It takes a village and the villagers need to communicate

Concering 1st Grade.Learning: Report cards are based off digital scores, and students are hardly not monitored/left alone when using i-Ready computers. I-Ready is recommended for 13yrs+, however is given to children as young as 5 years old, and use this as a crutch to distract children during critical engagement time.Teaching: Teachers spend most time on computer, data "mining", and meeting with each other, rather than engaging with students.Social Emotional Support: Teachers and administration staff are typically unapproachable. And are dismissive, gaslight, and deflect any accountability.Special Education: Always misses scheduled IEP appointments by calling in sick, doesn't make up for scheduled missed days.Safety: No accountability for boys who are overly-aggressive towards girls. Constant bullying, fat-shaming, and physical violence.Family Engagement: Attempted to block my personal familial engagement during specific family-entertainment hours like paint-night, picture-taking, by leaving me in the dark about specific and important dates/information.

I have had 7 kids attend this school within the past 4 years and unfortunately our family has not had the best experience. There are very few caring teachers/staff, parents voices are not heard when it comes to concerns/safety for our children, they don't contact parents regarding issues at school, they don't care about issues the students are dealing with, bullying is tolerated, staff members encourage students to try sexual acts upon other students during school hours if they're unsure of their own sexuality. The list goes on. I do not recommend this school to anyone looking in the area. Please do research before sending your child here.

Defended people that assaulted me and refused to report it to the police and then blamed me when the police scolded them when they confronted the school.
