Hollingers Island Elementary School

I have two children at Hollinger's Island Elementary and they are excelling in every subject. I am at this school quite often and Every Teacher knows my children and their names. I have seen nothing but caring and nurturing. There are challenging children in every school, even the private schools. As an adult I deal with challenging adults almost everyday. We all have to learn social behavior as well as academically. This is a great school!

Most wonderful, loving, caring and understanding group of teachers. My children are receiving an education to prepare them for the future.

I have three children at this school. I also attented this school 'back when'. I feel we have a very good little school, but I am concerned about the direction we are heading. I feel our principal needs to be more involved in getting parent cooperation. She is the leader of our school and this is a must. Parents need to give a little more of thier time so that our school is viable and conducive to our childrens education. As far as bad children and vulgarity, I don't think so. I am a frequent visitor and have not witnessed or heard what you suggest.

My child has went to this school since he was in kindergarten and he is now in the fifth grade. Apparently this person has their schools mixed up. There is no vulgar words in the bathrooms and if any ever show up our custodians clean the bathrooms everyday and things like that are taken car of right away. We are a very good little school. We have no major disipline problems, like any other school we do sometimes get children who act like they have never been taught to behave, and this is usually reflected right back to the parents when you meet them, but this is something we only wish we could change, not something we can. We have a very good and caring staff, from teachers right down to custodians. Everyone at our school cares about our children and yours.

My children have attended Hollingers Island for the last 2 years. It is the most horrible school I have ever seen. I had no problems with their previous school, but as soon as I transferred them over, there was a new problem ever week. The childrens bathrooms have vulger pictures and word all over the walls, and administration refuses to do anything about it. I'm sorry, but if a school is ran properly they would care about things like this. The children arent repremended for cursing and fighting. I have found that if your child is on the other end (the victim), he or she is the one who will get in trouble. This school is full of bad children, as well as Bad parents backing them up. They don't encourage children the way a school should. The majority of the teachers have lost their passion for teaching and it shows.
