I am genuinely sad to say that I really, really do not care for this school. It's not a "bad" school per say, but the way it is run is what drives me absolutely NUTS. Very disappointing and very aggravating. Also, there is no real sense of community within the school. Hardly anyone attends the school events. The PTO is a hot mess. Their events are weak, lame, boring - hardly anyone attends!! The PTO admitted that they "fly by the seat of their pants" with events and planning...they don't really seem to put in much effort to make the events particularly special and fun and alluring. Hence, serious lack of attendance to the events! I actually feel uncomfortable and embarrassed when I do go to the events b/c it is so empty....There seems to be an overarching theme of laziness, lack of effort, poor communication, and disorganization. Disorganized and messy. I have 2 children here and am NOT impressed at all. I have another child that will be starting kindergarten in a couple of years and I am sick to my stomach thinking about having to send them here. We have literally considered moving again so that we don't have to send any other children to this school. So disappointed; very sad.

1 of our kids goes to this school and next year one more will join. We are very happy with the teachers and programs. Rupley has a program to help kids that need additional education as well as those more gifted kids that need extra reading and math programs to keep them challenged and interested. Music and art programs are good as well at this school. In addition they have a bi-lingual program, nice well stocked library and computer lab. Kids work with new tablets and notebooks issued through school, as well as get their turn in school broadcast center that encourages public speaking.

This is the best school in the district. I am not sure why Rupley looks bad on the report card but my child is excelling. The staff is wonderful and they truly care for the kids. The teachers are overcoming this "bad wrap" and makes them even greater! Rupley is AWESOME !

This school is fantastic ! When my daughter strated kindergarten, I dreaded sending her here...but am glad we did. Ruply has far exceeded my expectations and the teachers are hands down, some of the best !
