Fantastic school! Mrs Groves is a great principal. She is so visible - always out interacting with students and available for parents. The school values - respectful, responsible, positive, prepared and safe - are constantly taught and consistently reinforced in individual classrooms and with whole school activities. The teachers, including specials teachers, are awesome. Great music program. Love, love, love this school!

Blacklick Elementary welcomed my daughter to the 4th grade with open arms. My daughter was a transfer from a loal catholic school. Although, Mrs Schidmt has retired I am certain the current leadership is is equally dedicated to her mission. My Daughter is now at South and thriving academically and feels right at home, Thank you, Keep up the good results!

I think this is discriminative school&not for children from different cultures.It was the worst school my child has ever attended.secretary&principle didn't know what docs should be provided by foreign students.They were very rude.After 2-3 days they finally figured-out what they needed. My child had some difficulties with English(it was her 2 year in USA) She s a straight "A" student/attends talented&gifted classes. Her most favorite subject s mathematics. However, her 5th grade math teacher from this School made her dislike this subject&this school.I tried to talk with teacher telling her that some times chld didn t clearly understand Eng.&needed some clarification due to language barriers.I was totally ignored.The teacher didn t even look at me while I was speaking to her.I tried to talk with the principle.The principle only said:"Mrs. ...is a great teacher. She raised all of my children" Maybe she was very good teacher for her kids, but she definitely wasn't a good teacher for my chld.She ignored her each time when she raised her hand.This school is not for multicultural people.Each time when we r driving by my child shares with her unpleasant experience with that Math teacher
