This school encourages bullying. Teachers bully the children themselves. They single out certain children and humiliate them in front of the class. They throw things into the wall and always yelling at the children. Does no good to complain, because they don't do anything. Just continue to allow the bullies to get away with it. What kind of example is that setting?

Certain students are allowed to say and do as they please. One girl they let bully the students. She yells at other kids in the hall and gets physically aggressive with other students. She pushes children down and tackles them. Her along with 8 other girls pick on 2 girls. Nothing is ever done and the parents do nothing and do not think their daughter is a bully. The school is supposed to protect the kids being bullied. Instead, they tell the parents who the child is that is accusing the others of being bullied and the parents try and confront the child in public and basically tell the that they are liars. They have done nothing for these two girls being bullied. And its went on for years

Newton Elementary (NES) impressed me from the beginning! The principal and teachers are of the highest professional caliber. They are also very personable, caring, and nurturing. NES provides an extremely prosperous learning environment through the guides of respect and discipline. They foster self-worth, patriotism and excellence in each of their students. I couldn't ask for a better school for my kids! Thanks NES!
