By far the WORSE school ever! One of the students were sexually assaulted and the school didnt notify any parents, we found out via News channel. The teachers barely monitor kids and they have ZERO organization, they never know where the kids are.

Too much attitude, issues with teachers..
Rude staff, minor issues made into a big deal. My child felt the teacher was a bully. Soloing him out on multiple occasions.

There are a few good teachers. The office staff however are rude, unhelpful, and lazy. Do not recommend. They do not communicate well either. The entire staff aren't even aware of half the things they should know according to district. I've had to call district, because the school told me to.... but district would tell me the school is whom I need to talk to. Waste so much time... do not recommend this school. One of the worst.

The principal is a bully herself she allows bullying to happen to children with disabilities. She even turns off the playground cameras when the kids are jumping a student with autism on the playground. This principle and the vice principle is a disgrace to society . They should have been fired a long time ago but they just don't get caught at what they do to children with disabilities because the child is not always able to communicate verbally. Children with disabilities need to be allowed to have video cameras on them.

Registration for 21-22 was disorganized and extremely long. There wasnt anything in place for kindergarten besides a supply and uniform list. We were told to wait for a call, which I never received. A few of the kindergarten teachers have horrible attitudes and one made a rude comment to my child on the K-introduction day. I addressed this and was met with opposition. The incident was never addressed by admin, nor was I contacted. I still had not received any communication from a teacher to introduce themselves. Upon arriving on 1st full day, I stated my childs in Kindergarten but hasnt been assigned a teacher. With an attitude, Yes, they have. You can sit down your bags and need to exit bc parents cant be in the building due to Covid-19. This isnt my 1st rodeo. But, it will be my last with Chimneyrock. Its a negative environment, unprofessional and disorganized. We were so excited, but this experience has drained us. Well be transferring to another school ASAP. I have never been greeted, received good customer service, care nor concern since I reported the incident; only backlash and disrespect.

My child hasnt had homework since being there but yet I get daily complaints about his performance. The teachers are of no help in getting the kids the help they need.

So far it has been awful Im constantly getting notes about my childs performance but you cant work with any of the staff to get your kids the help they need. They claim they encourage parents to participate but when they have a parent thats willing they practically leave everything up to you. Most of us arent teachers so we need advice on how to help our kids!

Chimneyrock teachers go above and beyond for their students. Many of them spend their own money on supplies for their students. Behavior issues are handled quickly and fairly. I love this school.

My son has special needs that sometimes result in behavior problems. He can be easily handled with the right approach. Due to my husbands job we move often and have lived in many different states. Chimneyrock Elementary was horrible. This was the second worst school we have dealt with. If you have a child with special needs do not send them here.

There was to much homework. I think in Elementary school students should have minimum homework. They are still young children and have spent a third of their day at school. Another third is spent sleeping. They deserve to get the last 8 hours for themselves and family.

I wouldn't know. My sons teacher moved him away from the other students and gave him busy work to do. Once he had annoyed her enough he would be sent to special ed for the rest of the day to finish his work.

Chimneyrock Elementary does a good job of teaching students to be prim and proper and how put on face. They don't teach them about the importance of honesty, integrity and fairness. My son was designated the bad kid by his principle and teacher. Their actions wore off on the students and soon my son was being picked on and treated like an outcast.
