Glen Arden Elementary

My child really struggled at this school. Most of the staff are not very compassionate. Administration was not empathetic. Some of the staff members are great, unfortunately not enough to create balance.

Terrible administration. The principal allows teachers to bully students and takes no action whatsoever to ensure students are being treated fairly when such actions are brought to her attention.

The teachers are great and love to teach! The administration, they are stretched out too thin for the most part and paper work often gets miss placed. The nurse is not in the building all the time. The lunch room staff is great, meals, not so much. Communication is lacking between the parents and school. The PTO is, well, horrible. Totally disorganized. Rude members, unless you are one of them. Do not like suggestions from "outsiders". The school is in the middle of upper middle class lower high class neighborhoods and although it doesn't reflect from the children, the parents let you know it. We are a middle class family and our child doesn't want for anything. I nor my husband " dress up " for anything even our own wedding. We were looked down upon for wearing jeans to a breakfast. Can't win them all.

All three of my kids went to Glen Arden and they had just the best time. The teachers are so helpful and encourage their students to do their best. I would recommend this school to anyone!
