Cherokee Trail Elementary School

Can I just copy the previous review posted? I agree with everything that parent said. The vice principal Drew was fantastic but they did not keep him around. The current principal is unfriendly and does not make an effort to get to know parents and students. When I told her we were thinking about switching schools she could care less. My son had 27 students in his class last year and there is only 20 where he goes now. There also seems to be a discipline problem and the school ignores it most of the time. Moving him to another school was the right decision.

SO sad that this school has gone DOWNHILL since Regina left. The current principal is negative and unfriendly. The past vice principal, Drew, was also amazing and should have been given the principal position when Regina left. The current vice principal contributes something... but it's very unclear what that might be. Some teachers are amazing, Mr. Major is probably the best teacher in that school. Others are truly horrible and, unfortunately, outnumber the amazing teachers. Moving my kids was the best thing I did for their education!

I am disappointed with this school. They are too focused on the curriculum and not focused on the kids. I think the expectations are too high for my first grader. I wish the goal was a well rounded child and not just academics. I understand its school, but in first grade I would like to see the school nuture my child has a whole and let her develop completely.

Cherokee Trail works very hard at trying to make sure everyone in the school receives a good education while also emphasizing personal accountability with the students. The school has a very friendly and personal environment.

I absolutely love this school and the principal! She is a wonderful asset to the school district and really seems to care about the kids. She listens to the parents and my family just adores her. The teachers seem to care and love parent involvment. I wish there were more principals like this one for every school out there!

Cherokee Trial is a wonderful school. The principal and new assistant principal are great. They really care about the kids and are dedicated to give them the support and motivation they need to achieve.

I would say that Cherokee is a wonderful school. All of the staff is very involved with the students and they are are always willing to listen to the parents about what they can improve on. Parent involvement is very important to the staff at cherokee.
