Woods Elementary School

I have been tossing back & fourth for over a year about writting a review about this school and have been afraid to do so due to repercussions my child would face. My child has ADHD and obviously does not fit into the box of school expectations. Despite all my efforts to work hard with staff members, I have only had the privilege to work with ONE teacher who actually tries to understand my child rather than punish him for his quirks. Last year my son went into the restroom stimming vocally. He was asked to leave the bathroom and wait as it is distracting to other children in the rest room...When he finally was able to go he was no longer able to hold it and had an accident on his way. He ended up wetting his pants and became extremely embarrassed. When I brought this concern to the principle and the teacher the teachers response was how could he be embarrassed if no one saw? The teacher was not held accountable during that meeting and rather the principle try to educate her staff member on this she tried to speak highly of her instead. This teacher made my son's life unnecessarily hard for an entire year. Now here we are again. No longer involved in this teachers classroom but has the audacity to tell my son to drink water the proper way as he should know the school rules... I decided to call and ask what the policy was regarding the proper way to drink water, and was laughed at and said well there isn't. So I asked why my son is being told this then & the response was I'll look into it... just like they did when he was punished for having a vocal stim, right? This school will NOT take accountability for the teachers that treat your child this way. Instead they just turn their heads & let the behavior continue... ironic... huh?

My kids attended Traver from 4K -8th grade and this school effectively prepared them for high school and beyond with the level of care the teachers have for the students and the students education.

Reek was our first choice for school and we’re so happy to be apart of the Reek community. Staff are amazing and accommodating. The all around atmosphere is wonderful. Students are comfortable. The communication with the parents is always top notch. We’re looking forward to watching our children thrive with Reek.

My daughter started 1st grade this year and this is an absolutely wonderful school. Safe environment, very small class sizes (10 students), challenging curriculum, and teaches about the bible and the importance of God in our lives. Worth every penny of money I spent.

This environment is very money oriented. Asking for money /donations on a daily basis. Lack of Christian behavior going on behind the scenes. Clergy not very supportive or involved much with students or parents. Most of the message conveyed is guilt tripping. Not a very communicative environment. Favoritism among teacher's children is very apparent. My children no longer attend here.

Our school has a clear mission of providing a quality education and a strong Christian foundation through God's word. We are not just a school, but a family that cares for each student. We could not think of a more supportive, loving environment for our children. And their academics are amazing, because it is a multi-grade classroom set-up, which internationally is recognized as producing top reading scores. We are currently fundraising to keep up with technological advancements by purchasing chromebooks for each student. The teachers and staff continually are adapting to higher education standards, while remaining true to a solid Christian foundation. We are truly blessed by having this educational opportunity in our community!
