Ohatchee Elementary is the BEST public education you can get. Caring administrators, teachers, lunch room staff, parapros, extras support staff (such as our librarian, nurse, reading coach, reading interventionist), buses drivers, and the best substitutes teachers in the state of Alabama work here. The reviews previously written were written in ‘10 and ‘14, and were written well within the first year they attended the school. Ohatchee is a small town, but give it a chance and the town/ community/ school will adopt you. You will be what I would’ve done apart of it. Ohatchee folks are “tight-nit”, stay here long enough and you’ll appreciate it. Tornados, deaths of youths and parents, houses burned to ground, tragic events that occur in your life become part of the communities focus. This cliquish town engulfs you in love and compassion. Give it a chance! You will be blessed!

OES is a great school with a lot of great teachers. The kids here are very nice and respectful. Having been in three different schools in our 5 years of school this one is by far the best. One big issue I have is no open house this entire year and the PTA is like a secret society we never know when they meet.

THe great scores are for the former principal. There is a new principal and it has changed beware. They do not want parents involved we have been in school for a year and we have not seen one notice on the PTA or when they meet. There are destinctive click and they run the place.
