My child has been coming to Bradfield since she was in pre-k I cannot say enough good things about the school over all! The teachers are passionate about what they do, they go above and beyond to bring the students the best education they can. My child has shown a huge improvement in her grades.

My kids are walkers today they didn't release my kids. They say they never walk without their older brother. They have walked this hole time I'm always outside waiting on them or my older son who is in high school. I went in thinking something happened to my babies. They told me they didn't know where they where so I had my husband looking all around play ground. Then office lady brings them and I was very livid at this point yes I cursed. Then the lady told me I shouldn't talk like that and refused to let me take my kids. That made me more angry. This school is bad they change teachers to much. They are rude to parents. I'm trying my best to take my kids out and put them in new school.

The school has improved with new leadership. My daughter has been helped by the intervention program, ESL teacher, math pullout teacher, and home room teacher. She has made progress. The new principal seems to care about the kids.

This is my sons first year at Bradfield. I am an assertive parent and so I made myself available to the school. Thus far I have been received with respect and with dignity. The school and its personnel are providing my son with a quality education and are willing to go the extra mile when needed. Thanks Bradfield Staff! Please note my scores of 4 stars reflects only the first two months of school it would be unjust to rate any other way at this time.

This is my son's first year at Bradfield, his teacher is wonderful! Ms. Clemans is the first grade English teacher, she is so kind, patient and dedicated. The principal is something else...she will expect the teachers to punish the entire class if she sees one child misbehave. She also doesn't seem very approachable..

This school has a very high teacher turnover. Parents do not get straight answers when they question the leadership. There are a lot of discipline problems at the school. The test scores have gone down.

This school used to be good, but so many teachers have left. Some classes have subs for a good part of the year. The teachers get no help with discipline. They are criticized constantly for petty things like classroom decor and shoes. The school does not have solid leadership. I know some families who have taken their kids to other schools. If you can get your child into a different school, please do so.

Bradfield used to be a good school, but the quality has gone down over the past few years. Some of the teachers are excellent, but the school has a high turnover of employees. The principal does not support the teachers at all. She does not look at the children when they talk to her, and she does not seem to know any of the students' names. The PTA is nonexistent at this time.

Awesome bilingual teachers. 2010-2011 PTA is wonderful. Principal-parents connection is not that good, she needs to allow more parental involvement.
