This school is horrible!!! I sent my children to this school (1st and 3rd graders), my 3rd grader was having issues in math and is usually an A B student. I inquired several times to her teacher about what I could do to help and her response was "I dont know what to tell you". This same teacher also shared confidential information from a parent/teacher confrence with other parents of children in the class which resulted in the teacher and parents speaking of it on their facebook accounts. When going to the district about this, nothing was done. This school is horrible...please dont make the mistake I did. I went to the principal about this and she also didnt care. I showed proof of all of the above as well. :( Very sad tht the staff here cares nothing about the children.

It would be a good school if they would learn to take there students to the restroom. They blame the students accidents on the parents as well as everything else. It's the schools job to ensure the kids go to the restroom. Last time I checked the parents are not getting paid to work there.

Both of my children have attended Saucier elem. The staff is one of the best on the coast. They really care. And it is in my opinion the best academic elementary school by far. I think children learn more when they feel that their teacher really cares about them. And the more the child learns, the more the teacher challenges him. Great atmosphere for your child to learn.

My daughter has been going to this school for two years now and she really enjoys it. The teachers really keep you informed on what your child is doing in class.
