My child was bullied to the point I had to remove her from this school. Do NOT let the appearance of this school fool you into believing it’s a nice school. The teachers enforce masks indoors& outdoors, kids bullied, hit and emotionally abused my kid. The school / district hires and promotes gay pride on students & in classrooms . Bridges After school program hired a gender fluid teacher/ aid that specifically asked the 1st graders to call him an (they/them) not by his own name. Confusing to say the least. My child was bullied on a daily basis for 3 months , I would pick her up , she would be crying saying that this student hit her, kicked her and shoved her on the ground & kicked her & no one did anything after she told them. I would call the school& or the after school program to inform them and I was told we will review the film & sure enough I would get a call back that my child was telling the truth. My child remained in class with her bully and her teacher would look away or tell my child to solve it on her own after she was hit and kicked on line with this student. My child was Not safe here.

I went to this school in the fifth grade, and I honestly hated it. We watched movies all day and we didn't do anything. Kids would constantly get into fights and nothing would be done. The school wasn't horrible, but it had crazy low standards and kids there were violent, uncultured, rude, and disrespectful. We left the school after a year

I think Charolette Glass is one of the best teachers I've met in my life... She understood my daughter and worked with her, her experience with children with ADHD was an extraordinary experience and enjoyed your help in shaping her beautiful Personality and letting her shine like she does ;) you Rock Miss Glass. We miss you :( anamesmama <3

I am impressed and excited to have enrolled my daughter in Dyer-Kelly Elementary. The teachers and administrators are personally dedicated to the academic growth and individual learning style of each and every student. The school's culture is receptive and communicative offering a dedication of learning resources. I LOVE the energy and renewed optimism i see in my daughter and her attitude regarding (anything) having to do with school, or learning or homework or the like! IT's Just Awesome!!! Thank you!

Love this school, I have the option to send my children to Starr King or Howe and have been pleased with this school. I appreciate all the school has to offer and all the changes they have made. I have had 2 children graduate from Dyer Kelly and have two more who still attend this school.
