What are these people talking about? Before I enrolled my children here, I heard nothing but good things. My friend told me she attended as a child and now her daughter attends. Worst decision I ever made. My kids have problems almost every single day. Office staff are sooooo rude, they don't even acknowledge you, you have to get their attention. My son told me a sub pushed a boy to the ground and the police were called. WTH!! Teachers do not have control of their classrooms. Complaints everyday. I will be taking my kids out of MPS. Only good thing I can say about that my kids teachers are really caring and really try to help, don't know about the other teachers though.

Elm Creative Arts gave me the impression that it would be a great learning environment for my children, but it was quite the opposite. There were fights EVERYDAY in the school, one was in front of the principal during a test! My children have never been exposed to such a violent group of people before. Elementary school children beating each other bloody is not the experience that I want for my young children. Very disappointed in the handling of the disciplinary problems at this school.

Elm is exceptionally prepared and student-focused. The staff members are very professional, and parent-friendly. I have two Elm graduates, and they are excelling. Thanks Elm for the strong foundation!

All my grandchildren have gone to that school. Two are still in it now! It is a great school that concentrates on the academics AND the arts!!!
