Flippen Elementary School

It's an ok school but not the best. It could be much better like it was in the past. Don't know why it started to decline.

I had initially rated this school very low because of difficulty w/administration (principal). I did not feel there was a welcoming environment.. .not even in the front office. The teachers seemed overly stressed and unfriendly. Walking through the hallway, many staff members would not even say 'hello'--even if spoken to first. However, since the point of my first comment, our children have returned and my husband and I have noticed a difference in the administration (principal) and front office...more welcoming. Our children's teachers have been quite good. They really go out of their way to ensure that our children learn the content and are successful. I am glad we decided to return.

More diversity needed starting with the top. Use to be a great school now it's a D school.

Ridiculous policy of having to scan mother's ID to pass some cupcakes in the cafeteria. They did not have a copy of my ID in his file. He has been in the school for 5 years. All the plan to spend 10 min at the school to celebrate my son's birthday was spoil. Very sad but all I can do is to withdraw him. This school is going down the slope.
