School staff is not interested in mental well being of students and not willing to respond to parents concerns

I would NOT recommend this school. The principal and vice principal are both rude and should not be in the school system. A serious incident happened with my child and I was not notified. Upon arrival to pick her up, my child was withheld from me without reason. Subsequently, I called the police to help resolve the situation. Although, the situation was taken care of, to not notify parents when there is a situation is unacceptable in every way. School administration lacks necessary communication skills and is very nonchalant about it.

Honestly when I came to this school, I knew I wouldn't like it. I was bullied and yet Mrs. Wilson (principal) wouldn't do anything. I wish Mrs. Gill came back as our principal. She was a leader and she always helped. Rather than Mrs. Wilson just getting kids in trouble and talking rudely... Other than that the teachers are great. They help me get the education I need. I just go to school for learning not drama.

We simply love GKE. Ms Gill is very efficient, takes the time to listen to parents and promotes parent involvement in school activities. Even makes the effort ( I imagine she must have a tight schedule) to show up at most of the extracurricular activities to encourage/cheer her students. She genuinely cares about her students, each and every one of them and wants the best academic outcome for them. GKE offers great electives & after school activities for the kids: Leadership, Science Olympiad, AVID, Soccer, Basketball, Volleyball, Art etc... The teachers are simply the best! Ms Adams, Ms Bunton, Ms Boehmer, Ms Adkins, Ms Basacker, every one of them. We love it here and we will become even more involved and invested in the school. Go Eagles!!!

George Kelly is the Best!! We love all the teachers, staff and the principal. Mrs. Gill has brought so much to this school in just a short amount of time. It's nice to see a PTO and school that tries to bring the families of the school together with all sorts of functions. My family is happy to be a part of such a great school.Go Eagles!

George Kelly is a fabulous school. Very approachable and supportive principal. Mrs. Gill goes above and beyond to make sure the school is safe. Great teachers! My children love the school because of the caring staff and after school programs.

My children love school and it is because of the teachers and atmosphere of this school. I have been very active in this school and appreciate the individual caring and effort the ENTIRE staff put in for both of my children.

I suspect the reviewer who wrote, "It's really cool" was written by a student, probably an 8th grader based on the comments.

Looking forward to child atteding this school. I've heard only great things about curriculum and teachers/staff. from actually current parents. On neg reviews all I have to say is they must have an axe to grind. No school could be that bad ,being that school district admins monitor and audit constantly. George Kelly keep up the high integrity and dedication to excellence.
