If your child is sped with behavioral issues, PLEASE RUN. Six hours to register just to be pestered they STILL need documents. Three weeks to get a bus route. I have attendance harassing me because they mark him absence when he's not in regular classes. Provided a 40 page IEP that they clearly don't go over. No real program to help children with these needs. Also will make you feel like you're at fault. Worst experience I've ever had with a school and have left me feeling hopeless about my sons future.

The school doesnt care about the special needs kids. Theyre all thrown in the same classroom and they can barely keep special needs teachers. If your child is special needs please seek other options because this school is not it.

Needs improvement. Receptionists needs to be replaced! They cant do simple task. The school wants you to leave work for a small fever, a cough, child pees their pants, or anything small. Parents have jobs. Teachers allow students to fall asleep in class and also dont put them on buses. I have had so many issues with this school. Principal doesnt seem to care about fixing the issues! Otherwise, would be a good school.

Worst school ever! This school needs a fresh start. New teachers and especially new principal. How she's managed to stay in this position this long is an unsolved mystery.

Crippen Elementary is a wonderful school. The administration and staff are dedicated educators striving for student success. The teachers are truly invested in ALL childrens education and their growth as learners. The principal is open minded and thinks outside the box to make Crippen a successful educational experience for the students. Crippen is committed to the whole child. They teach value lessons, communication and leadership skills. Education has been a very positive experience for our family.

If you are looking for a hostile environment where teachers are bullied and their passion for teaching is gone, then this is the school for you!

poor. I have had experience as an employee and a parent.
Posted: March 22, 2019
Read 20 minutes a night without accountability.
Posted: March 22, 2019
The staff works hard, but the administrator is not supportive.
Posted: March 22, 2019
They try, but things like effective counseling is practically nonexistent. The counselor's role is that of test coordinator.

She leads by intimidation and bullying. Teachers feat speaking out against her.
Posted: March 22, 2019
Aides are assigned to classrooms with special needs students not according to their needs or curriculum, but to when it best fits the administrators schedules.

Principal bullies and can be vindictive . Teachers fear speaking out against her.
