St. Bernard Elementary School

I agree that the school was a lot better than it is now, but times change and that's a lot of it - times ARE different. As far as the psychologist from the County, it cost a lot more money for the County psychologist than to hire one to work directly for the school. The County psychologist worked WITH us but reported to the COUNTY. This one will work WITH us and report to US. I would wait and see if you feel that it was done for manipulation reasons; as there are rules and guidelines that need to be followed no matter what reporting relationship there is. And, who knows, you might like this just as well. Surprise, Surprise!

St. Bernard used to be a great school. I went there, along with all of my siblings. Now, Dr. Webb and her cronies are destroying the district. There is extensive amounts of nepotism and people truly rise to the level of their inexperience. (Dr. Webb is probably one of the least intelligent people in the district). They had a great psychologist through the county but they didn't like her because she followed the law. Surprise surprise they got rid of the county psych and hired their own so they could manipulate them. Next year, my children will be going elsewhere.

Our Son attended 1st grade at St. Bernard and we were very happy with his progress in reading, spelling and math. I am impressed with the dress code and great communication between parents and teacher. Lets just say my Son has a daily planner and I don't! We look forward to next year and expect the same. The small class room sizes allow for alot of one on one time between students and staff.

I would have to say that St. Bernard Elementary is an overall effective school. We have great teachers that try to do their best with the resources that are available to them. There are many parents that take an active roll in helping this school be its best. We don't have many extracurricular activities at the elementary level which is a shame. I would like to see our P.E. teacher come back to our building full time as right now we have to share him with another building. The people at St. Bernard Elementary really do their best to be caring, helpful and of good academic quality.

The teachers are GREAT! The feeling you get when you walk in the door is just unexplainable. I am very impressed with the knowledge the students have over some of the other children in the area. I do think they need to work on sporting events for the kids to be involved in through school.(2nd-6th) I think different parents could be more involved it is usually the same parents with all the activities. Lastly, I think some of the kids can be more academically challenged. Overall the school is excellent!
