I was in this School for 4 and 5 grade and in general I had so much fun in this School it could have just been my classmates but I liked the teachers as Well, Really the only problem in this school is that bullying does happen I personally never saw bullying in my time there oh and the food in all the rosewood schools are terrible but I personally really enjoyed being here.

They are good for telling times parameters to the parents, but horrible for telling the other key information.
Etc. "Drop off Susie at 8a.m."
Its your job to guess where though.

Now I will say they offer many programs for children that may be struggling, but it is 2018 and there's a recognition for diversity.

Don't ask don't tell. Its a public school, so there's always bullying, and teachers don't like to rock the boat too much.

2/10
They have generic plans in place to student sucess, but that's big brother making then have those plans. When it comes to the merit of the schools character they fall flat. There's no one to talk to, there's obviously social clicks, and the leadership out there is blind leading the blind mentality.

Not consistent. Ether my kids bring home 5 work sheets, or they being nothing at all.

Honestly is a 50/50. There's excited optimistic teachers that enjoy children, or there's the old maid that's bitter she's making 5k less a year thanks 23 year old that just started.

The move to Goldsboro was a hard transition especially with the lack of information on school districting. I research backwards in terms the school district to where we will choose to live. In the end we chose RWE with an on sight walk-through. Modern, convenient, well-maintained, and a true community dictate a well founded selection. I am not keen on NC schools but was remarkably impressed by mission, vision, and the well-being of the student that is expressed verbally, in parent meetings, and brought home for parental review. It was a rocky start before school session (kindergarten) as I believed the district is a "pull system" of information as opposed to a "push-system". We were provided class requirements list in the Open House only 4-days prior to school opening. But since the new session, the school is very up to date with computer access to student activities, class happenings, teacher access, and homework. At our daughters current level of instruction (K) the only downside we experience is a real lockdown on conversation between students, even in the cafeteria; no talking. They re 5 years old. Otherwise I see no reason but to consider this school in your selection.
