i wouldnt reccomend this school if you have other options there is not one day a fight doesnt break out, especially with the current 5th grade the whole school knows how terrible they act they cant even have physycal education anymore. Some of the staff are saying profanity around and at the students and contradicting themselfs giving out chewing gum and then giving the studests detention for chewing gum

i just graduated from ivy hill elementary school and I will not recommended this school to anyone that want to put their child their because they speak another language , yes it does have the teachers you need to help your child to learn english but if you care about your child mental health please do not put them there, while i was attending the school i got bullied by my peer and my teachers saw it happen but did nothing to stop it because of it i hated going there and just wanted to go home luckily the pandemic started and i got better but i don't recommend it they do nothing to prevent students from getting harassed and bullied in fact they the one doing it too a teacher knew i didn't like being in the spotlight and it made me anxious but she put me there just for her mere entertainment, they all focused on the louder kids and left the quiet one to figured it. Normally even if a kid get bullied at school they will not go and write a bad review on the school page but if i a formal student does it it tells you a lot about the school the bullying i got from Ivy hill elementary school left me with scars in my heart although they hilling it was not easy going there i went from a outgoing kid to a kid that was wondering if the person next to them was going to bully her or if she says the wrong thing while going to Ivy hill. PLEASE do not make your child go through this there's a better school like oliver school if you know your child is a shy kid or a quiet one dont but them there I beg you. I don't want anyone to go through what i went through

This school is a very excellent school. We have alwayed reached the benchmark. But Cami Anderson wants to shut our school and turn it to a charter school. She says she wants to make the nps schools better but there are other failing charter schools. Now her people suspend Mrs. Brown the principal and the PTO president in jail for charges that he hasn't done. Remember Cami Anderson, you can not shut us up. You would have to take everyone down !!!!!!!!!!
