This school is horrible. The principal prior was horrible. Hopefully this new one will do better. The school has a MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE! It’s never corrected properly. The bully is never taken care of. This school district is horrible. Just stay away if you can. The teacher DO try. But when most of the students are down right rude and disrespectful I can’t blame them.

Bullying is a never-ending problem in this school. The children who speak out against it are the ones who get punished. This school has failed to learn from its terrible history and is destined to repeat it.Would be wonderful if the curriculum actually centered around teaching necessary skills and facts instead of how quickly can we sugar up the kids.

I live in this district and wanted to go and tour Darby township school before I registered my son. I couldn't even get anyone to return my phone calls. Given all the bad things that have happened at this school, I registered him at Holy Cross and we have our house on the market.

I have a 5th grader and 1st grader that goes to DTS. They love all their teachers and they are wonderful. Especially Mrs.Rowe! But I don't agree with the Principle at this school neither. Mrs.M. Today for example. It was 16 degrees out and she had all the children standing outside. It was freezing and kids were throwing snow at each other. And there were no teachers outside to watch the kids. I did leave the Principle a VM message but she never got to me. So hopefully something gets done about this. Thank you
