This school has a lot of problems which the principal conveniently does not address. She prefers to skirt around parents who ask for help, whether it be for services concerning learning, bullying, classroom issues, etc. Don't expect for any problems to get resolved at McDougle. The administration take the approach of them vs. parents, and will never try to work things out the proper way, and the way the kids deserve. Somethings very wrong with this picture.

We moved to Chapel Hill 2 years ago and weren't sure what to expect from McDougle Elementary. We now have 2 kids there and couldn't be happier with the teachers and staff. Any concerns we have had were handled appropriately. I feel very fortunate to have our kids at McDougle!

We recently moved to Chapel Hill. I, myself, grew up moving every 5 years. My mother was a elementary educator for 30+ years. This has honestly been one of the least organized and least parent-friendly schools, administration, I have ever experienced. If you have a child who lies outside of the norm, good luck with getting any help. We had heard such wonderful things about CCHS but we have been so disappointed. We are looking at pulling our oldest out and attempting either the LEAP program or a private school. I certainly hope things will improve but I am not holding my breath.

There is strong bullying experience in the school bus, usually from elder students toward younger ones. The administration tend to ignore and to find excuses instead of taking care of the bullying. When a parent is complaining about 5th grader bullying a 2nd grader, the wise principle will not hesitate to put the responsibility on the 2nd grader. The principle is new and the school suffered from instability in the administrative team. The teachers are great, though some are inexperienced, teaching less than 2 or 3 years.
