3/10 at its best the school does not provide an environment conducive to learning
Posted: August 12, 2019
The school lets the teachers decide if the students will have homework.
Posted: August 12, 2019
The teachers can only do so much since the schools are focused on SOLs
Posted: August 12, 2019
They try to instill these qualities however there is a lot of bullying

My son had a positive experience at this school
Posted: June 22, 2015
This is my child's first AND last year of school at Newtown Elementary school! My child, who is diagnosed with having ADHD, has been punched in the face twice by two former classmates, belittled by one teacher, the school nurse, and a cafeteria worker...each case I have complained to the staff. The issues, as the staff would say, have been resolved but it just seems like one bad thing after another keeps happening. Once I told the principal that I was taking my child out the school, she made me seem as if I was/am the problem or that I'm incompetent because I constantly confront the issues my child is having in that school. My next step is visiting the superintendent and getting my child transferred. Other parents have complained to me about the staff as well but are scared to speak out because of the fear of retaliation against their children. I don't recommend any child attending that school. It seems like some of the staff just doesn't care about the children. This review was originally posted on January 29, 2015
