Waxhaw is a 2010-2011 school of distinction:-) Teachers care so much about the students. I agree that the PTA needs more parental involvement. School is doing a great job.
The teachers and staff of Waxhaw Elementary work to help meet the individual needs of its students.
Waxhaw Elementary has a consistent record of being a school of Distinction, the teachers talk to each and every child they have and review that childs skills and areas that need improvement and work individually with each child to master the grade they are in.
We need more bible based teaching to help the children learn that their creator is the one to look to in rough times and not other venues that are destructive to productive lives. Studies have proven that schools that have bible based principals and teachings that honor God have higher academic scores. This is not a coincidence,
Great Teachers,Great school!!!
Great Teachers, A School Iam Proud for my children to attend
This is our first year at Waxhaw Elementary, and I find it to be a very good school. My boys are in 2nd and 3rd grade, and both their teachers are dedicated and passionate about their learning. Ms. Stuka (3d grade) challeged her class so much that my son whizzed through the EOG.
I am a parent of a student at Waxhaw Elementary School. I give the school high marks in every way. My son excelled greatly due to the high quaility teachers and their assistants. I give this school 5 stars. They focus on education and not what house everyone lives in and what they drive and how much money you make. They are the real thing!! Keep up the good work.
School is very welcoming for new comers, but after tha phase you start to find the gaps. There is lack of: challenging curriculum, new teaching tecniques (very old fashion). Teacher and administration very worried about discipline and EOG performance and not academics. A kindergardener is expectec to not talk at lunch, make lines for everything otherwise they will get a good high pitch scream. There is a lot techers with too many years in the same classroom and/or school than needs to be update. Last but not list Mr. Jones (principal assistant) needs to mature and really solve situations not just be a good listener.
School is very clean nice physical environment. However the testing scores at the skill are definitely sub-par. I have to supplement homework or lack there of that comes from her teachers. The teachers are very nice though. I wish they would challenge the kids more than what I see. The school is not all bad, but academics are lacking.
