I went to this school for five years starting in 1961. I have a masters in education and just retired as an elementary school teacher. It was because of the positive experiences at this school that I wanted to become a teacher. I am moving back to Memphis area in early summer and hope to volunteer at this school in the future. From looking at test scores I think I could be of help.

My daughter complains about the same group of girls the entire school year and absolutely nothing has been done. I even spoke with one of the moms and she explained the teachers NEVER say anything to her about her daughter. But my daughter complains about her daughter being mean to her at least once a week!

They are not very encouraging! They stay in kid mess! And they retaliate against your child if you complain on them!

The teachers just arent very encouraging. They pin the students against each other instead of helping them to embrace each other.

My experience was terrible. I was very disappointed about the lack of professionalism of your principal, Yolanda Heidelberg.
