Woodruff Elementary School offers a great learning program for all children no matter how difficult they may be. The staff and teachers are always there to answer any questions that you or your child may have. They offer after after school programs for the children which is great. I know my grandchild really enjoys them.
My child attended Woodruff Elementary and was very happy there. The new administration in 06 was a much needed change. The school became much more parent friendly and parents became more involved within the school. The teachers at Woodruff are well trained and qualified to teach. The students were well behaved, especially in the hallways. The PTO was very active and made many improvements within the school. We will miss being a part of a great school.
we have a grandchild who goes to this school. We love it .I picked her up and was very impressed with the students in the halls. They have lots of activities involving parents. We would not change her if we could. this is a GREAT school.
This school is better since new administration came in 06. I feel welcomed. Lots of programs for parents and tone is different. The PTO does a lot of projects.
Woodruff Elementary is very difficult & almost impossible to work with on students with disabilities. Have been trying to implement a 504/IDEA for my child now for over 3 years & still have now gotten this accomplished. If I had the means-she would definitely be somewhere else with more compassionate teachers & administrators.
Son has adhd and principal was no help at all, asst. Principal flat out told me they would not/could not help him, even tho required by law. When picking up children all you do is sign in, they do not check id's to ensure safety of who is picking child up. They think of them as buckets to be filled, not lights to shine. Due to this school system our family is highly considering homeschooling. Our children are not numbers, they are little people!
Never see principal- Need better organization within school system. Two students left school without permission when supposed to be in after school program- Nobody knew where they were! Special education is horrible for students with any type of disability, clueless! Needs new leaders ASAP! Hate to be neagative, but please give me reason to be proud!
Main Principal is awful! He does what he wants. Assistant Principals do all they can to help parents and students. The 4th grade teachers are the worst! (They do have 2 that are great!) They have several teachers in the 3rd grade that are really good but 5th grade has the best teachers.
