Dunaire Elementary School

After volunteering at Dunaire Elementary, I quickly noticed that with all of the normal activity of a typical school, whether the students learn, lead, follow, show positive or negative academic/ or social skills or not...at some point the PARENTS must be academically involved with their students. Sure we can speak about the Principal, Teachers, Counselors and Administrative personnel etc. but we must understand that the foundation of learning begins at the home. If a system can be developed, that would be conducive to the parents (via time & commitment) I think that better test scores can be produced. Trying a different style of learning can be fun and fulfilling but we must be willing to take that small step on faith.

I love the teachers. my son enjoys being there, and he is learning more and more everyday. Thanks Ms Wilkinson

This has to be the worst school in DeKalb County. I have been through hell and back with this school. The staff is unprofessional, impatient and honestly should not be teaching at all. The principal whose new to the school is another one. I honestly think she is there for the check. She knows nothing and has no idea what is going on with her staff and students. The assistant principal hands out suspension left and right with out any alternative disciplinary actions. My son has been suspended 9 time from the mth of Sept to Oct 2014, and he is a first grader.... this is very questionable. . My son has not had any type of homework for the past 3 mths. When asking the teacher her only response is that the copy machine is broken.. Your child education is very important and frankly the staff at this school cares nothing about it. The classroom size is extremely large with one teacher for 30 kids. I have decided not to participate with any actives in this school, any fundraising, they will not get a dime from me. Dunaire Elm, Worst school ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and I rate you a 1

I am so fed up with this school and the teachers. If you choose this school please be very observant of how your child I'd looked after.
