OK People, This school has the best teachers ever, especially 3rd grade. Some people should not be allowed the post uneducated, unfounded, none-sense just because they don't get their way about their untrained kid(s). Not only are ALL TEACHER, and other public servants, underpaid and overworked, but these teachers have been patient and extremely caring for OUR children and sometimes more so than some of these lazy parents are available to do or be.Hence: (Monday - Friday 8am to 4pm most days, not to mention all the extra activities and most weekends to make sure that these untrained, rotten, selfish kids have the things they need for class.)I don't know why this Anonymous person is ranting the way that they are but, one thing is for certain; if they truly understood their options with their children, they should home-school or live under a rock! No teacher should ever be reduced to the comments of one ignorant imbecile. My 3rd grade child grades has increased, test scores has increased and confidence has increase more this 3rd grade year than all the years in school. Separation anxiety was an issue but not anymore, Behavior has never been an issue and I'm willing to bet all I have that this person's kid has some behavior problems at home and school. I make no apologies for telling it like it is. Anonymous person, get a life!

Worst 3rd grade teachers out there. My child has done great since kindergarten, and was doing great in third grade here at Williams Elementary until I questioned the 2 teachers and since then my child is making really low grades which has never happened before. The 2 teachers seem to be more worried about trying to teach their own manners and make fun of certain children there then to TEACH like they are getting paid to do. Oh and don't exspect any early notice about anything (homework, anything to do with parents and children meetings are lunches, it's all last minute are they will say they sent notice but never did, then blame the child). Would not recommend unless absolutely a must. There are good teachers there but just not the 3rd grade teachers.

When we bought are home, the biggest selling point was that the school was just a few doors away. It started out as a wonderful school . I spend every free moment I had there volunteering, it really felt like a family. When the principal Mrs Goode left, she took that sense of family with her. The current principal and teachers do not care about the students. You can always tell when teachers love their job, or are there for a paycheck. The curriculum is sub par. Many of my complaints have gone unresolved. There have been 3 instances of adults being physical with my children. I am told it will be investigated, but still no resolve. I am in the process of getting the school board to investigate this school. If you have the chance to go to any other school, please do. You will not be happy here!

Pre k team is great, no problem there. My son was being bullied by a classmate and the teacher always looked the other way. We were borrowing a friend's address so they could go to that school. Back in November my son had a major surgery and the principal found out about the address so the sorry excuse of a man kicked my other two kids off the school saying they needed to leave by Friday February 14 2014 and this was on a February 11 2014. The school is getting worse since that new principal took over. All he does is stare at women's behinds. It used to be a great school. The principal is not a good leader, so the school is not good at all.
