My kids have been in this school for about three weeks, when I first went to visit the school I thought I was going to be very impressed. Now that have some good teacher, but they also have some issue: Like my kids have doctor excuse that says no sugar well I found out that they are still letting my kids eat sugar. I have address this with the school and they are not wanting to abide my a doctor not which concern. I happen to be moving so I don't have to worry about that no more.
okay i have to say this school is "beast" but there are a few things that got me for insistence i went to eat lunch with my kids and i saw what they were eating and it caught my eye they were eating pizza with french fries and left over pizza for breakfast and i really didnt like that and i went to the open house and great teachers!! but they told me that they werent using text books in 5 th grade soo that kinda makes me wonder what are they teaching my kids?! soo over all i will give them 3 stars but they are not challenging enough but the best things are is the teachers!!
My children and I are very happy with this school, we just moved back from Durant, OK. where my 4th grader was 25 lessons behind in math there. I have a 2nd and 4th grader and they are pushed to learn more in this school.
We are so pleased with East Hancock! We have two children at the school and they have attended for the past three years. I can honestly say that each teacher we have had has been wonderful. They are truly committed to the students and really enjoy their jobs. Both children are doing very well and LOVE going to school! The communication between parent and teacher is great and they strongly encourage parent involvement. We are a military family and move around quite a bit, so to find a school like East Hancock has been such a relief! Thank you for providing a fun, safe and structured place to learn!
I think this is a wonderful school with wonderful teachers. They have great progeams and include the parents as much as possible.
As a parent I applaud East Hancock to have the courage to sing 'Christmas songs' that use the name of God, allow children their imagination with Santa Claus and the strict way discipline is handed down when need be. Excellant school system and teachers!
I have had children in private school and this one is equal to or better than the private school.
Academics are very good here. Extracurricular activities could be stronger. Good parental involvement. Very good TAG (talented and gifted course).
Our daughter went to kindergarten at East Hancock. I volunteerd three times a week. What a wonderful school, and what a wonderful staff. Mrs. Perniciaro was a dream teacher and our daughter flourished in her class. A+
The parent involvement at this school is excellent. The school has many activites through out the year that include the entire family, ie. Halloween carnival, Silent Auction, Holiday Tree lighting. My son throughly enjoys attending this school and I am very pleased as well.
