Burton Hill Elementary School

I love the teachers, staff, and parents. It does very well considering it is a title 1 school and that most parents in the neighborhood are full-time workers. The parents do a very good job of making the school welcoming.

My experience at this school/district was by far the worst that I have sent my kids to. While being deployed. The teachers and several students who are also in military families, Offered no support to my kids during the holidays or the father-daughter dance. My children were bullied on daily basis and were blamed for it. The school work was not challenging enough and held my children back from reaching their full potential.

This is the worst elementary school my children have attended. They are very relaxed on homework, they encourage bullying, and choose favorites that can get away with anything. The office staff is rude, and the principal is a joke.

Its been bad and i dont expect it to get better. The school is in a solidly middle/upper class neighborhood and yet they seriously seem to lack resources and funding to provide for students. I find this suspicious. They now want parents to provide supplies for teachers, such as copy paper and dry erase markers and even headphones and cleaning supplies for the 2018-2019 school year. Ive never known a school to do this. My kids did not thrive there, older son was bullied and failed math even though we connected with the school multiple times to get him extra help. My younger son also struggled in certain areas and did not get what he needed at school. Both of their teachers were rude, condescending and uninterested. I do NOT want to send them back there.
