Ralph Williams Elementary is holding up wonderfully in an environment under flex, due to the closing of the space shuttle program! The teachers, staff and administration know most of the students by name and there is a strong sense of community! My kids have really enjoyed their time at Ralph Williams!
This is a TERRIBLE school. Take your kids and run! I had heard some bad things about the school and its teachers before moving in the area, but figured it was just hear say. Boy do I regret that! My kids went from A honor roll students to D's and F's and we aren't even out of the first grading period. The teachers will not work with the parents at all, Communication is rare. I found that the school board has also had several complaints and we aren't the only ones with these issues. The principal always backs the teachers instead of believing the students or parents account. I can't believe that anyone has had any good experiences at this school. I wouldn't recommend this school to my worst enemy.
We were very impressed with Ralph Williams Elementary and have had only positive experiences with this school. Our children's teachers showed excellent compassion and enthusiasm, and they had a great ability to make our kids excited about learning. Parental involvement is outstanding, and we were very pleased with the strong sense of community.
Ralph Williams has not been a good school for my son. He has focusing issues and all the school faculty want you to do is to put your child on medication. I ended up having to do this because they were not helping him get through this tough time. My son had problems in Kinder and he was moved to 1st grade which was ok. (I would rather him repeat 1st than Kinder). But If the school noticed this problem in Kinder, you would think that if he started out his 1st grade year having difficulties they would have stepped in to help him.......definitely not the case!!! I had to push for him to get testing done. It was to late in the school year so now he is repeating 1st grade. What happend to "NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND"?????
