North Street Elementary School

My niece went to this school for Kindergarden and she loved it. The teacher was great and the staff as well. It was also very safe as well even with it being where the school is located at.

My child also had some issues this school year with being teased about being smart. His father and I as his parents know it is our responsibility to teach him how to handle situations like this,weather it is being teased about being smart or if it is because he does not want to follow the crowd. It took us several weeks to get through to him but he understood and is now back on the honor roll.

The principal needs training in conflict resolution. Because of the bullying and nothing properly being done, my daughter went from an honor student to nearly failing academically.

I was once very happy with North Street Elementary. Lately it has not been a very good school. I think that there is poor leadership in the principal area. I have spoken to other parents who also find her to be an uncomfortable person to communicate with.

My son loves going to North Street. The principal and teachers are very involved with the students and they run a tight ship. I always received a monthly calendar and a memo every Monday explaining to me what they would be working on that week, so I would know what to help my son learn for that week. They communicate information to the parents continuously instead just at the end of the six weeks. The teachers and principal do everything in their power to make sure that the students at North Street are knowledgeable and respectful. I had never heard of North Street until my son had to attend but I am very pleased with the school and the education he is receiving.

New to Iberia Parish, I am very disappointed in North Street Elementary. There's too much fighting and bullying going on there that goes undisciplined. My child can't concentrate a lot of the time because her class is so disruptive and out of control.
