South Elementary School

South really underwhelmed me. The school doesn't communicate at all with the parents. The most you'll get is a monthly newsletter. Make sure to not misplace the newsletter, because that is the only type of information you'll be getting. At the school my children attended before South we received a lot of communication. E-mails, text messages, phone calls, newsletters, facebook page updates, district website updates, etc. They made sure that you knew when school was going to be delayed or closed. At South you had better make friends with the other parents because that is really the only way you'll know. I honestly do not understand how in this day and age they can't send a mass text message or e-mail to parents to let them know what is going on. There are some things that I did really like about South. I love that the children receive recess daily. Small children need a break from being expected to sit still all day. Good for you, South for realizing that children need to get the wiggles out!If the communication issue was resolved, this school would definitely deserve a "good" star rating.

I have got to say that I have enjoyed my kids being at South Elementary. There are some of the the best teachers there that are more than willing to challenge and work with you and your child through anything. It is such a relief as a parent to know that when I leave my child in the morning I know that most of the teachers are there because they love helping the children learn and not just for the pay check. I have really enjoyed the children at South but I have got to say that I am very worried about sending my children to the middle school and high school in Caswell as I have heard nothing positive about it. So this something to consider if moving to Caswell County.
