Heard Elementary School

They teach French in 4 grade that's impressive.

My son was having a lot of behavioral problems prior to beginning heard and I told the teacher at the time what strategies to do to help him however she did not and my son's behavior only increased being there. Since attrnding heard I would get a phone call a day to come pick him up, which is hard to do because of work. His teacher was rude and did something very foul to set my son up to be withdrawn from the school. And even though I straightened it out and was able to allow him to go back to Heard, I would not because of his teachers actions and how the administrators never tried to help.

My daughter went to this school for third grade and the teacher was mean to my child and did not know how to set aside how she personally felt about my child to herself. She always emailed me about pity stuff about what she do daily. They were going to suspend my child from school for the dumbest reason. This school is too dramatic all together.

The attitudes of the staff leave much to be desired. Children should be greeted warmly at the start and end of the day. School should be a place of learning and enrichment, not a reformatory. Even the kindergarten teachers are burnt out, it's time to re-train the staff. If educators can't at least feign interest in the quality education of the students they should be fired immediately. The sort of apathy displayed here makes it easy to see why there are so many private schools in the area.
