Sallie B Howard School

The way the school integrate the arts is just simply the most amazing thing I have every seen a school do.

I am a former teacher at Sallie B Howard. I had to leave because my husband's job relocated us. It was one of the best teaching experiences I have ever had. Resources were plentiful and the arts are outstanding. I do not agree with the comments that the school laocks consistent discipline . . . I was always supported. Go Eagles!

The school lacks inconsistency in discipline and I have witness the director becoming irate with staff and students. Their are constant new teachers entering Sallie B. Howard and some classrooms have three and four teachers within one school year. School is highly unorganized and fail to support all students and staff.

I do not understand why people are afraid to speak the truth. Sallie B. Howard is an excellent idea but Sallie B. Howard lacks the proper direction and administrative support of their staff. Excellent teachers have been let go over their ten years of existence. This past year staff was let go after Sallie B. Howard scores improved for the first time in almost three years. I personally believe you build on that not eliminate your source of improvement. Children establish teacher-student relationships and students look forward and anticipate teachers for their next school year. However, students have to learn to establish new teacher-student relationships each year before they are willing to learn from another teacher. This creates instability in student's learning environment and staff work environment.

I am a former teacher of the Sallie B. Howard Charter School. I am so happy to read the wonderful reviews that are here. I can truly say that the year I taught at Sallie B. Howard was one that I will always fondly remember. I was allowed to be as innovative and creative as I wanted to be. My students all achieved outstanding growth on the EOG tests. Keep up the good work, Dr. Woodard and staff.

Sallie B. Howard was a God-sent school for my children. They are really a second chance school after all. My family also support Dr. Joanne Woodard to the upmost. Keep up the good work Sallie B. Howard! T. Coley

I am also a parent of a happy Sallie B Howard School throughout my son 2 years their not only have he learned alot I learned alot just as well.The school is so culturally diverse that I encourage alot of parents to send there kids there.I enjoy the whole learning process,and the arts.I think that alot of schools should recommend the arts as extra classes,it gives kids a chance of believing and a chance to dream a little bit more. Thanks Alisha Pate

Sallie B. Howard School of Arts and Education in an excellent school. More schools should be under the policies of Sallie B. Howard in the areas of discipline, education and teaching our children of the importance of the world of art. My only wish is that I would love for the school to be from K - 12th grade. The students who leave Sallie B. Howard go on to regular public school where the students are far more advanced in their studies than their peers. Each student who has graduated from Sallie B. Howard wish that they were still that environment. Sallie B. Howard is once again a excellent school and if I had my way I would give this school ten stars.

I love this school! The teachers really care about their students. My son attends there now & enjoys school. They always encourage parents to be envolved. I have helped in the class room and it is a wonderful experience.
