If only no stars was an option. First of all education is hardly taken serious. Second very little effort is put into the safety of kids. I do parent pickup and there has been a handful of times where faculty is not paying attention and my child will walk straight up to my car and get in (they are supposed to be brought to the vehicle by staff). As of recent my son told me that on now multiple occasions he has been getting bullied (among others) by an individual. I was not made aware of the incidents that occurred to my son by STAFF but instead by him who is now feeling unsafe at school because of this kid and lack of care/seriousness from the faculty. I made it known that I’m now aware of these incidents so of course now it’s “being taken serious”. Unprofessional, unacceptable actions from staff. As parents we are supposed to be able to trust faculty to keep our children safe when we drop them off for school, not here. Parents make sure your children know they can talk to you about anything, we are their advocates. Also talk to your children about bullying, there is so many negative and life changing things that can occur when it comes to bullies and those who are bullied.

The staff works well together and all to better our great students. Teachers and staff arrive early and stay well past contracted hours. The staff is dedicated to our students and want nothing but the best for each of our scholars. I would not trade my teaching experience here for anything in the world!

I'm very disappointed with the way they treated my child . Teachers don't give you the right information you need to help you're child till it's to late ,The classroom's are way to BIG certain students did not get the attention they need . My child got harassed constantly and what was always scared to tell the teacher sad to say they never felt comfortable telling their teacher not sure as to why because a teacher is supposed to make you feel comfortable .. I just couldn't believe how horrible things got in one school year is unbelievable . I'm just very disappointed and hurt because I thought this would be a great school but just wasn't for my child . This would be that last year my child will be attending the school!

This school has low standards! The teachers seem not to care! They are very unorganized. I was not satisfied with Frank elementary therefore I got to the point where I did open enrollment to Broadmor elementary. Do not take your kids here. There's a lot of violence in the area, the school is all gated & locked up. I saw many incidents when the sheriff was on campus! I did like how they have garden boxes & many trees.
