This is my son’s third year at Henry Barnard. Everyone we have encountered has been wonderful and supportive. So far, it has been a great experience all around.

I checked in on the reviews before sending my child to this school and I have to say this is one of the worst schools you can send a child of color ! My family has been harassed and my child has been mistreated the whole time he was in this school . People of color beware with sending your children to this school I live with this regret everyday . School should be a safe haven for children but this one has failed my child miserably . Please BEWARE .

My child was there for 3 years (k - 2). After 3 years in this school she could not read, write, or do math any better than when she first started. Enfield public schools are about executive level salaries - not about teaching children.

My child is now a Second grader at Henry Barnard. He started his attendance here in Kindergarten. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this school. My child has special needs and has struggled with ADHD as well. The teaching staff, office staff, and Principal have all been so supportive and worked with him to help him achieve the highest success. The wonderful staff at this school is open minded and has been so encouraging. I need to add that my child gets special assistance from Occupational Therapy as well. This is something that many schools don't have the means to assist with. The TLC program has also been a huge assistance when we struggled with our reading. My child has improved significantly with all the extra help and the staff that have gone above and beyond.

This school goes the extra mile for every student. The teachers and especially the principal go out of their way to help a student with any problems that arise. An all round great school for children!
