This school is horrible. My daughter was being bullied. Had a meeting with the principal and nothing changed. I wouldn't say all of the staff is a mess but the majority are. They do nothing to protect the children. Speaking of children the language and comments made by these kids is and disgrace. The teachers do absolutely nothing to correct them neither. Worse school my child has ever gone to. I recommend if you fall in this school district to home school through grades 3rd to 5th.

I don't think it even deserves 1-star. There's too much red tape when it comes to getting straight answers about what's going on with your child and when it comes being there in person to observe your child and teacher. The law gives every parent that right. The principal applies his own religious beliefs when it comes to running the school and handling problems. The principal is also biased to certain students and rules. This school's staff is worse than worthless. There have been nothing but problems since our child was forced to enroll in this school. No one wants to help or act on any problem that has arisen. They just point there fingers at the parents and stick their noses up in the air. Everything falls on deaf ears. This school has created a toxic environment for learning and as a result it has created economic strain on our family and behavioral and emotional problems in an otherwise happy, bubbly child. A child should want to go to school and not have to fear ridicule, retaliation, nor be burdened with undo stress. Especially at such a young innocent age. If there's a way to avoid this school my advice is to go ahead and avoid it at all costs.

My daughter use to go to Beaver Run and she was doing amazing there. I heard nothing but good things. But now she goes to East Salisbury and the teachers seem to not care about my daughters education. They complain about my daughter failing instead of trying to help whats the point of my daughter going to school

East Salisbury Elementary: Not the best school it is old and very run down. The teachers are hit and miss, last year my daughter did very well. This year we are having issues with the teacher. No instructions are coming home on how the teacher wants the math to be shown. This is typical of this school, if the child misses something in class they are lost when it comes completing the assignment.
