Cedar Ridge Elementary School

Posted November 5, 2009

First off - do not judge any school from others reviews - go there yourself if possible and see things first hand. If you do - you will see that CRE is an excellent school. My oldest child has attended since it opened and now my second child is there as well. We have experienced nothing but excellent teachers and staff members all around. The PTO is highly motivated and involved. Any concerns are addressed and there is always an open door for parents to have the opportunity to see their children blossom. The principal is involved (my children run up to hugg her) and every para pro we have had has been kind and helpful. Nothing is perfect, but this school is very close. We have to move and I pray we find another school as wonderful!!!

My son attended kindergarten and will not return for 1st grade. We will do private or homeschool. His teacher was caring and tried, but his paraprof was cold. He was bullied by classmates and on the bus. I never saw the principal out engaging the kids. There's a color coded smiley-frowny face system that on a daily basis labels children bad or good in which the class knows what you are. I visit and had almost every kid in the class tell me what color my son was on thinking he'd be in trouble right then and get a show. I saw my son, a fairly happy child that usually told the truth, grow sullen, aggressive, & withdrawn with stomach pain and frequent illness. He began to lie constantly. That has slowly been eliminated over the summer and I see confidence returning. He didn't have these issues in KY Head Start.

My child began kindergarten the year that Cedar Ridge opened. We have been more than pleased with every aspect of the school. Everyone, from the administration, teachers, staff, and parents work hard to make this a great school.

My son attended Cedar Ridge for 1st and 2nd grade and I can't say enough about this school! All the teachers have email, which makes it easy to communicate back and forth, with out having to leave voicemails or make phone calls, which I love!!!!! The teachers also truly care about their students and seeing them progress! I live next door to a teacher at the school who had a baby and missed the end of the school year and she was truly sad that she missed the end of the year and missed seeing them get their end of year awards!! This school is great and we are going to miss being here next year, because we are moving back to TX, but this school has set a high standard for his next school to live up to!!!!!!
