We moved here from California and I love this school. Especially the fact they give all students free breakfast. Also I don't have to buy school supplies!! This my tax dollars doing some good to benefit us as middle class. It is a good school staff is awesome. Front desk lady with the poofy brown hair is a little on the rude side. Everyone else is great. The only bad side is there is very little parking. Private transportation instead of driving up and picking them up you have to find somewhere to park (hopefully you get lucky to find a spot) and go all the way inside to pick them up. Drop off is good except for the idiot helicopter parents who park where people drop off and drive off, those parents walk their kids all the way into school instead of parking. Those are the only bad things.

Our daughter is both gifted and has ADHD. We were so grateful to the school for identifying her as gifted early on. Through the years, everyone at Beall has been so caring and eager to provide what she needs. The staff was knowledgeable and clearly wanted only the best for our child. They really partnered with us and we appreciated that! Her needs were met and our expectations were exceeded. She's now doing very well in middle school. I credit the foundation Beall provided.

Pros: some great teachers, enthusiastic, caring and dedicated; Cons: generally everything else. The administration and staff seem overwhelmed, insincere, and out of touch. The general feeling I get is that most staff members would rather be somewhere else than at work helping children maximize their elementary school experience. My general motto for any job, especially one that involves interacting with people, is that you should be enthusiastic 9 out of 10 days. The feeling I get from Beall staff is more like 1 out of 10 days. I do not have a special needs child, but if you have a child with ADHD, autism, or Asperger's this is a school to be avoided for the staff's lack of support, knowledge and over all implementation of IEP directives.

This is an excellent school in a very safe community. The teachers and administration genuinely care about the students. The school participates in the backpack program sending food home on weekends to kids who would not normally have anything to eat on the weekends.
