I had a bad experience with this school. My son had issues with bullying and when I would address the issues with the teacher and/or principle they never felt the need to include me in how the situation would be rectified I had to call on several occasions to follow up and after so long it was almost like I was bothering them. Thanks to this school and the way they handle bullying and issues that students face my son went the entire year struggling socially. The principle does not listen to help she listen to respond and justify wrongful actions. I was counting down the days for school to end just to remove my son from this school.

I am very pleased parent of Buchanan Elementary. The administrator is kind and understanding and seems to have a good repoire with her staff and the children. She knows many the children by their names and she sits with them at lunch on occassion. My daughter's teachers have been stellar in my opinion. They are knowledgable, caring, strive to make learning fun, and have accommodated each child according to their skill level to help them acheive their potential. The SAAC teachers are wonderful also. They keep the art projects fun and new and maintain an orderly yet comfortable environment for all the kids. The school takes an active approach to prevent bullying and, by observation, it seems to be working well. The school has an active PTA which stands as confirmation of how much the parents in the community care about their children and the school. Buchanan is a great school!

First it is to bad that they don't have negative stars , My experience at Buchanan was just terrible! My mom was always feuding with the staff , it never felt like i could be a "normal kid " and i was never treated with respect it was the worst five years of my life! Including kindergarten!
