Hatfield El School

This school may have done well in the past but has recently taken a turn for the worse. After voicing concerns about my child's remarkably light homework load and speaking to friends and family with children in other schools this school has me really concerned. Our children are not learning nearly as much as other children in the same district and outlying district schools. Although this school holds reading fundraisers quite often the course material that the school suggests is quite rudimentary. We are considering alternative options at this point.

This school is a waste of my son's time! I have spoken to his teacher throughout the school year last year (2016-2017) in order to engage and challenge him. My son is very bright and operates well above his peers and yet his teachers assured me they would give him more work and attention during the day. However, I feel my son has wasted a majority of his time with these people and this school has not motivated him to learn at his capacity. If it weren't for my husband and myself our son would be just another average, bland, mediocre child. This school is more concerned with arts and crafts and social events rather than actual education. We are now looking into private school or the possibility of moving!

The staff is outstanding, everyone knows the students and many try to get to know them. Our principal and staff have gone above and beyond to work on bullying and respectful behavior. As mentioned there are many fun activities both during school and outside of school hours including jammy and super hero day and dances. Overall we love Hatfield.

They have wonderful teachers who love the children very much. The teachers care about them and their well-being too, that's what makes a "great" teacher... the school itself is "fantastic"!!!, they do so many fun things for the students as well my grandson ZACKARY goes to this school and he loves it!. Thank you and keep up the wonderful job you are doing the students...
