Overall one star because while I was over there for this year after coming back after switching schools for a year and a half, I saw things like bullying about things people couldn't control like unibrows, big foreheads, disabilities. Special education is a 2/5 because I saw students bullying them calling them "things" that I won't say, Safety is a disagree because what I previously said because discrimination, writeups for self defense, and my teacher even swearing once and then saying it wasn't a swear. For teaching I'd say 3 stars because One of my teachers could chill but the other one couldn't at all, learning would also be 3 because my other teacher (not the one that swore) actually tought me some stuff. For social-emotional support there is none at all.

My children have been attending Heard since kindergarten. One is now in 1st & the other in 2nd grade. They have been blessed each year with loving & caring teachers. Their dedication to the students is above & beyond what is expected of them. The other staff and parent involvement shows how much they care about this school. A huge thanks to the principal, vice principal, teachers, staff associates and parents for running a school to be proud of. Go Heard Go.

I am truly loving Heard Elementary. After having such a negative experience at one of Macon's magnet schools, I brought my child to his home school. Don't let the the fact that our school is not as fancy nor pretty as some of the others. Our teachers are awesome and the staff really cares about our children. My child is finally being challenged and has regained that motivation he lost when attended that fine arts school. Don't be fooled by the hoopla, our school can go head to head with any of the other elementary schools in the district. I am one pleased mama. THANK YOU HEARD!!!!

Heard Elementary is an excellent school. The principal is the heart and soul of the school. She loves the kids and the kids love her. The teachers really care about the kids and make sure that they learn what is being taught. Talk about parent involvement in schools. This school has the best parents.

My son came to Heard from Northwoods Academy. He required special needs due to a speech delay. His teacher and her staff (1st grade) showed a genuine interest in helping my son suceed. Their dedication to the students shows each and every day. My son left the 1st grade a better young man due to the diligence and hard work of the Heard staff.
