Our years at Dibble have been wonderful and I highly recommend this school.

My expectations were so high when I enrolled my children in this school. Long story short, I pulled one of my children out i the middle of the year and transferred him into another school, which was a hard decision to make. I am so glad I did because I now LOVE the school I transferred them to! I did not like the environment of the school as well as the leadership. The secretary was very unprofessional on many occasions. I will say that their teachers were very professional and friendly.

Lice ran through the school which happens but they harassed my child. My kid got it. She came home and I treated her hair two days and I sent her back. I didn't get a call again for about a week. I got her again treated it and nothing again for a week. When the next week came again got a call. At this point I was mad. I took her home they said they found one lice. I treated her hair and combed through it literally an hour and didn't find one bug. I found out they had called her out that day at 9 and didn't call me till 11:30. So they made her sit there for two and a half hours before they called me. The weeks before that they called her out every day in the middle of class. I asked if they could check it before class started to avoid embarrassment hey said ok then ignored me. I asked the principal could he check the class again for lice because it's weird to find one lice on a child her refused. The teachers are great very sweet my kid loves hers but the office staff and principal are horrible people. They have the worst attitude and don't care about the kids. I've called asking questions about my kid and never get a call back. They honestly need to find a different job away from kids.

I find it funny Dibble gets such a high rating. My child has had a horrible year getting bullied and she's only 7. the professionals do little to nothing to resolve issues of physical harassment, theft and she was threatened by one child that he would stab her. Most of the kids are new to Dibble, as I think Dibble gets more money to import kids from other areas. This school is changing and my daughter WON'T go there next school year.
