Anna Henry Elementary School

I felt as if this school's atmosphere was very negative. After being there only a month, I witnessed and my children told me of several negative incidents and when I brought it to their attention they put it back on me rather than addressing it in the classrooms.

My daughter has been at Henry for the past two years and we have been completely satisfied. They participate in the OMA (Opening Minds Through the Arts) program, have dedicated and caring teachers, and a fantastic principal. There are regular community events and the school has a great playground as well. I highly recommend this school!

My daughter started Kinder this year at Henry and has a fantastic teacher. She has gone from knowing her letters to fully reading at a first grade level in half the year. The credit is owed to her teacher, as so much progress was made once she started school. She loves school and has made lots of friends. It is a wonderful community and the teachers are very caring and supportive. The principal is very approachable and can be seen out in front of the school directing traffic and chatting with parents every morning. I also love that they have a Pre-K and after care program on site. My 3 year old son can attend the same school as my daughter, which makes life easier for us. We love being part of our neighborhood school and this community.

My daughter went to kindergarten here last year and I can not tell you how horrible it was. The teacher was burned out and spent most of the time putting you tube videos on for the kids that took forever to load and were frankly very strange. Three of the kids in my daughters class had severe behavior issues so that took up the majority of the teachers time and I believe she was too exhausted after to teach the other kids. My daughter received all 3's and 4's on her report card but has recently been tested as dyslexic which the teacher never mentioned as a possibility or even a concern . They passed her thru without a care. I would not send a child here if you care about them actually learning something, if you only care about them being able to copy test questions to pass it is great place to be .
