i used to go to this school k-5 and it was genuinely the best school i've been to so far. the teachers are the best unless u get the mean ones but even so they do fun activities to make it better. the food was literally amazing, cheese stuffed crust pizza, beefaroni that was cheesy ash , pasta, macaroni, and even different fruits and veggies. there's also around 3 different food choices to pick from if not more. when i was there the students and teachers where great and nice! they manly got good grades as well.there is different classes like music, art ,pe, science, and guidance, there's more but they where really nice and fun!

As an 8th grade student at this school, here is my experience...Teachers - Some of the teachers DON'T EVEN TEACH! Teachers mostly give out worksheets and hope you learn the material instead of actually teaching; this lacks motivation in students, no wonder quite a couple people in my class have F's in the gradebook.Food - DISGUSTING!!! The food is gross and nothing at the school is vegan-friendly. I would much rather have soggy food in my lunch box than this absolutely disgusting food. No wonder so many people constantly throw away the food.Learning - Not the best... students are lacking motivation in learning. Students never have fun, and are constantly complaining about being at school. The only reason why students go to this school is because by law you have to go to school until you are 16 at least. Students look at this school as a place where they are forced to go to and be bored all day, not a place to have fun and learn.*Also if you have a child who lives near this school and they are in 5th grade, take them to Christa McAuliffe, it is a much better school than this one*

We have had good experiences at this school with both our kids. It is now a K-8 school and one of our kids attends middle school. It is a small middle school program which we like. Both our kids have done well and make good grades. We recommend it to other people.

this school is very bad! only a handful of teachers actually teach while the others just let you do what you want or are just generally bad at teaching.FOOD the food in this school is not the worst but still is absolutely garbage

Both my children have been at Hidden Oaks since Kindergarten. One is now in 5th and the other in 3rd grade. I could not be happier with this school. I wish it continued on through middle school. Mrs. Myers is so hands on with everything. I mean EVERYTHING! Somehow she always knows the right teacher for the right student. She is incredibly organized and has the most incredible teachers to support her. Definitely recommend this school.

My son is in 5th grade and has been at this school since kindergarten, and my daughter is entering kindergarten this year. The learning environment at Hidden Oaks is excellent. Mrs. Myers and teachers and staffs show the school is very organized, and treating everyone in a very professional manner. I have not encountered any issues that gave me a negative thoughts about this school. Hidden Oaks is an excellent school that exceed my expectation. I hope Mrs. Myers and everyone at this school will continue to keep up the good work.

We love Hidden Oaks Elementary!!! Mrs. Myers, Principal and her staff are amazing! They go above and beyond what is required with fun activities for the children. They stress the importance that Leaders are Readers and give the children positive incentives to do so. Good citizenship is awarded to students with High Flying Hawk Awards! My boys attended 4th and 5th grade at Hidden Oaks and my girls have been at the school since Kindergard. now going into 4th grade. I really can't say enough abou this school, it's a great place to learn! Mrs. Myers leads this wonderful team of teachers with excellence! They use the latest technology to teach in the classroom and communicate with parents. All three of my girls love going to school and that says alot when your kids love to go to school! The teachers make Hidden Oaks Elementary great!......and it all starts with leadership! Thank you Mrs. Myers!

This school is excellent. My son attended Kindergarten through 5th and left in 2013. My daughter is still attending Hidden Oaks. Throughout all the years, I am pleased with their operation there. I admired the way the Principal is in TOTAL control. I watched her in operation all the time. Now that my son is attending another school, I definitely appreciate Hidden Oaks, very, very organize from the front office to SACC and teachers. I also enjoyed all the activities that have. I never had a problem.

I love this school. My middle child attended the school from 2nd through 5th grade and now I just had my youngest reassigned to this school. The principal is very hands on and they don't just say they care about your child, they show it.

I love Hidden Oaks Elementary. My son goes to Kindergarten and he loves his teacher. They are very organized, they always answer the phone. My son's teacher always responds to my emails effectively and accurately. She has helped my son achieved many goals this year. We are extremely happy and I would definitely recommend this school to anyone

School has lost almost 30 employees (office staff and teachers) since the end of last school year June 2012. School needs new leadership. With up to 90% new staff this year makes you wonder!!!
