This school protects it's teachers not the students. It is a mockery of the public school system and should be shut down for it's lack of concern for how it's students are treated. Look at the horrible test scores this school has produced. 5 out of 10 stars. I believe thats a failing score. Sounds like it's time to clean house.
Coming from a larger city, I was expecting so much more at a school with a smaller student to teacher ratio. My child's first year was horrible. I found one teacher in particular, to be completely insensitive to my child's needs. She showed very little concern for both the academic and social well being of my child. While there are some quality and progressive minded teachers, there are a few still living in the 1960's with limited adaptabilty to minority students. Its either they are unaware or simply don't care about the damage they cause by belittling a child. Perhaps some sensitivity training is necessary. There is also a rigidity in the teaching of subjects which is never addressed, especially in the upper grades. What ever happened to allowing children to ask questions? More teachers in this school need to be held accountable for their actions.
A traditional, old-style K-8 elementary with a dedicated faculty. The teachers seem to care deeply about the students. The math department in the older grades is probably the weakest link in the school. Horace Mann's education gave my child everything he needed to compete in a competitive high school. I would recommend this school to any parent who is looking to enroll their child. It is probably the best of the Bayonne public elementary schools. They have a very active PTA group.
