Front office staff is RUDE! These ladies are the face of the school - if you don't know how to deal with the public OR CHILDREN than you shouldn't be working these positions. My child has had a few good teachers over the years, but the rest I encountered were disciplinarians. My child even experienced emotional trauma due to the constant bullying happening at this school that was NEVER resolved. Teacher couldn't have cared less.Even the volunteers are rude - children are yelled at during lunch to shut up and eat. Children are made to run laps around the field if they get in trouble during lunch or recess. What is wrong with these people?! I am so relieved that I was able to get my child out of this horrible school. Here is a tip for all parents that I learned too late - you do not NEED to place your child in this school! Juniper Elementary is underperforming and because we all want the best for our children you can demand that your child be accepted to another school that has a better staff/volunteers and providing a better education for our children.a better. This school gets plenty of funding seeing as lower income schools qualify for more grants. Where is the money going? Good riddance Juniper Elementary.

Juniper is a great school with compassionate students who are eager to learn. The office staff is amazing. I am always greeted with a cheerful hello and a smile. The teachers always make themselves available to the parents. I know when I send my children to school they are in a safe and loving environment. Love Juniper!Juniper Pride!

My son goes Juniper Elementary he's in TK and I am looking for a new school for next year. I agree with the concerns about the principal and office staff, I do love his teacher though. I was going to keep him there for one more year, but then I hear they don't do kindergarten graduations. What school doesn't do that?? It makes the kids excited and shows them what they worked for all year, there was an end of the year performance but it wasn't the same.

Excuses, excuses, excuses. Nothing gets fixed and everyone ignores your concerns. Sad to say nothing seems to have changed since the 08/20/10 posting: Anyone who praises this school is blind! The front office is ususally short and act like you are bothering them. The teachers and their cruddy curriculum prefer to send schoolwork home than teach it in class. The communication between teacher and parent is close to non-existent. Our child went there for K through 1st grade, and we are currentl looking for a different alternative to this public menace. Parents of younger grade kids need to be warned; your child will lose his/her recess if they use the restroom too many times! Our public school sytem needs to be reformed from the ground up! Almost forgot to mention that Juniper and most schools are way to concerned with their test scores and the kids get stressed out and are told, "if you don't do well on your state test score, then you won't move on to the next grade level." Just awful!
