We have had nothing but good experiences so far at Oakland Elementary. From the front desk staff, to teachers, to the Kaleidoscope staff are great. They have helped get our son off to a great start with his education.

Completely disappointed and appalled at the new principal and front desk staff. My son is African American and special needs.. since his arrival this year I have had nothing but problems with the bus situation and dealing with the racism and attitude from the secretary and front desk people. This school has no toleration for children who are minority or special needs. It is a shame children are still marginalized and disregarded by white middle class staff at this school.

I have never had so much confusion and trouble transferring my grandchildren school started on the 15th of August. My 2 boys didn't get to start until a month later. There is no school work being sent home of what their doing or done nothing I wrote in one of the boys weekly book asking on the 16th of how many children in their class as I will send snacks. I finally got a response on the 29th which they say they responded on the 28th that's a lie. I look everyday in the book waiting on a response. And then to top it off. No bus today. I call the school they say oh bus trouble call Durham bus lines well that's a joke. I'm still waiting on them to return my call from last week on the 21st from an incident that happen on the bus. So I'm not a happy person and that's why only 1 star if it was my choice a 0 starThanks

We have been involved with this school for 3 years. My kids have excelled at this school because of the amazing teachers and administrators. This school has helped my kids fall in love with learning and be the best students they can be. Every teacher, assistant, or staff that I have come in contact with has been very kind and helpful. Our family is moving and I am really going to miss this amazing school!
