Opequon Elementary School

My child is excited about going to school. That makes me happy. He likes his teacher and his friends.

My daughter transferred from MD and loves it. This school is diverse and the curriculum is age appropriate. She’s learning the concepts of math and science in Kindergarten. WV schools are trying and we just need to have patience as parents. The school lays the educational foundation but we must continue to build those skills at home.

Great school… and very well engaged with the parents. Safety… top notch. Thank you for your hard work to the entire staff at Berkeley Heights. We’ve had a great 3 years of having our trust in you.Thanks again.Parents.

Me and my parents regret ever going to this school. I came to this school in 3rd grade, and the three years I had of elementary school was decent. Once I started middle school there, it was absolute hell. The middle school teachers except for a few were horrible, and made my experience there a nightmare. I was heavily bullied, and even though I brought it to teachers, nothing was done. Then when students brought up fake accusations about me, staff set up a meeting with my parents and pretty much did a police investigation on me. I won’t name any names because I don’t want to damage any reputations, but here was a number of things that happened. In a religion class in 7th grade, I took my glasses off to wipe them with my shirt, when my religion teacher called me a narcissist out of nowhere. Me and my parents brought it up with the school, and she was let off with a simple apology. My sister (who also went to the school) had a lot of seizures at one point, and when asking the teacher to go to the nurse after a big seizure, the teacher said “I hope you feel better” and did the sign of the cross. I was shamed by my religion teacher for not being Catholic multiple times, even though I was still a Christian. I’ve been given demerits (which was the punishment system the school used, don’t know if they still use it or not) for doing the littlest things or even nothing at all. I could go on and on. I finally escaped that place and started public school, and it has been amazing. I’m no longer shamed for not being catholic, and the staff actually respects me. Parents that are thinking about sending their child to this school, save your money, and by all means, DO NOT send your child to this school.

Love the school have 6 kids that go there. Next year we will probably be adding one more. Love their bible teaching in every subject.

Amazing my child loves to go to school and she loves her teacher and her new friends
