Because it took you more than a month it took them 3 years to deal with a bully that was hurting more than just one kid. This can have effects on the child's life because they are still young. They only say ok and that they will work on it but they don't. There are still bullies and it doesn't help when you are in a place that you wont feel safe for education.

My child just graduated and I feel that this school did a very good job with preparation for the next level.

I have had good experiences with the teachers overall, but the main reason I'm reviewing is that I have had an amazing experience with Lexington's special ed teachers. Ms. Watrous especially and her aides have been invaluable for my child's progress, and they are so friendly and communicative with parents. They work so hard for their kids and really care about them.

They emphasize kindness, respect, and caring and give awards to kids for showing these traits.

Even though the principalship has changed a couple times in recent years, I have liked them and their approach. They seem involved with the kids and teachers, and with what's going on at their school.

As I said above, the special ed teachers are absolutely second to none and their moderate program is fantastic - I wish more elementary schools had similar programs.

School Policy on extra curricular activities, is based on teacher discretion, they say it is lottery based, but teachers pick their favorites. It is not lottery based!. While nutrition and exercise is important, my child will not get a scholarship if she eats well or has a slim waist!, She needs good grades and needs to be exposed to great teachers and EXCELLENTcurriculum.
My daughter is in the 5th grade and still working on level three math, how are they equipping her to get into middle school!. Below Par!!!

My sister just graduated from this school, and she told me that she like her school. She told me that the teachers cared about her. My sister behaved really well in this school. Yes, I will admit that even though she was eager to learn and have good grades, she was limited because she had no one help her with homework. Also, my son will be going to the state preschool of Lexington Elementary and I will come back to review the school for the preschool teachers in this school.
