Pleasant Ridge Elementary School Reviews


Posted By: parent Quality Score: 2 2008-02-28 “4 Kids through this school. New teachers all the time lacking the skills of which child needs what. The older teachers here are great, strict, and teach the children well. Hope for a seasoned teacher.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 2 2007-08-23 “I am disappointed with this school s curriculum. I don t feel my kids are getting the education they need and are really falling behind compared to other kids from other schools that we know. I think that they are trying to focus just on the areas where the school is lacking and leaving everything else out. There is no balance. There are some teachers there that have absolutely no control over the kids and my daughter would come home with headaches all the time because her class was so loud. The kids that attend this school are going to suffer greatly from lack of a good education which is exactly why we are moving as soon as possible!” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 2 2006-11-02 “I have 1 son still attending PR and 1 who recently left for middle school. I feel PR principle is lacking in tolerance. The teachers are wonderful and work well with the limited space and resources available to them at this time. Overcrowding is becoming a serious issue and needs to be addressed ASAP.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 2 2006-08-31 “I feel mixed about my children attending this school. I have a 4th grader and a 2nd grader whom attend here. While there are lots of extra activities for the children, I feel most school work is sent for homework so that the school day can be more fun. I agree with the playground situation. This is something to be dealt with.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2006-08-23 “I have a child in this school. I am very happy with everything. Teachers are able to accomplish a lot. They have great ways to communicate with parents by sending notes and classwork. Parents are welcome to visit and eat lunch with their kids any day. When I come over I see smiling kind open faces. They like to ask questions, and to share their ideas with adults. They like to help to clean up. They behave in line. There are many adults watching them every moment. I have not seen kids fighting. Biggest offense I observed was using 'outside' voice inside the cafeteria. Every time adult who happened to be near corrected it fast. Last but not least, they are very creative. They are learning many subjects in depth. They create abstract art and learn the color theory in second grade. They write and publish books. And gym is a delight!” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 1 2006-02-03 “I have to agree with the 2004 report. I have children that go to this school. They come home telling me about children hitting other children and staff not doing anything about it. My child has came home with marks on them with another child has hurt them and the staff has done nothing. One of my children has came home with marks on face were a child scratched and nothing was done. This school get a poor rating for the lack of control the have on the school.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 1 2004-10-01 “There are individual teachers who care, however I have a special needs child in this school and the children are not supervised. My son comes home with scrapes and large bruises. My daughter is allowed to roam the halls. They are allowed to play on a playground which is not fenced. This joins up to a residential living area were anyone can walk on to the school grounds. I am very disappointed with this school. When asked for the policies relating to special needs children and school responsibilities, I get no response.”
