Holmes Elementary School

EXCELLENT! As a volunteer at the school, I had first hand observation of the knowledge, compassion and professionalism demonstrated at this school. They could use more volunteers.

One star is giving them more than they deserve. This school deserves a 0. The current Principal Dr. Yvonne Perry and Assist Principal Ford-White do not care about the students here. They don't care about the safely of the students. EVERYTHING gets covered up. Instead of them, handling problems they love to push under the rug.

This school is neglectful with our children. They have ZERO supervision when dismissing their children, a major concern for several years in many areas with far better neighborhoods (where as here they experience GUN shots almost daily in that area). Anyone can come in and retrieve a child as long as the child isnt screaming and kicking they dont even notice you are there. My nephew is Mentally Disabled (mentally retarded, ADHD, Autistic) and we have informed everyone in that school about his needs and the need to do the IEP evaluation so we can move him to a school that will provide him with the education and attention he needs. Unfortunately for us, my sister's cries have been ignored by the teachers, principal and everyone. At this point all his doctors inform us that going to school have decreased his progress by 2 years and he is only 5 years old. When he was in special classes that provided him with the help he needs he was improving. And the only response we receive from anyone in school is why is he missing school (because YOU ALL ARE MAKING THINGS WORSE!!!). I hope I can find someone to help us get there attention so we can remove him from this NEGLIGENT school. HELP!

not that great teachers curse.the security guards curse my children are failing at learning and the children need to be put in control its agravating to go to a school at noon when the children are running around when they are soppused to be in class
