Registration staff is rude and condescending they do not understand that if you do not have the birth certificate you can use other documents and that if they deny a student enrollment into their school based on not having the birth certificate they are in violation of the federal law and several staff members have stated that they are not in violation the federal law they don't have to abide by it and they're all rude disrespectful I would never recommend a child go to the school even if they were desperate and this was the score the only had an available space I would not enroll a child there

My son is in his 3rd year at Charles Wright and my daughter in her 2nd year, and we have had nothing but excellent experiences with all of the teachers, and with the principal, Mrs. Slaven, and Assistant Principal, Mrs. Barber. There is also a very active Parent Teacher Club that has raised several thousand dollars over the past 3 years, money that has been used to improve the playground equipment, provide teachers with supplies and classroom tools, and most importantly, restored the ability of all classes to go on big field trips several times throughout the year! My kids and I love Charles Wright! Staying involved and getting to know the teachers, principals, and staff is key, and has allowed us to benefit from constant support and opportunities to improve. Only a handful of parents come to the PTC meetings, and attendance of school functions by families of students seems low.

My children do not like this school, this school does not have a anti bully policy in place. if your child is bullied here they just say stop it and put the children on opposite sides of the playground.DONT WORK!!My children are miserabl;e at this school, the teachers they have are rude and do not interact with parents except once a year for a quick parent / teacher conference if thats what you wanna call it.Not very many school activities for kids either, barley any fundraisers.The principle Ms. Slaven is not very helpful either!!
