Orange Grove Elementary Charter School Reviews
Rating 2.75 out of 5 4 reviews
So far, really good teachers but really depends on who you get. The administration is the absolute worse. If you have issues, get ready to hear "Well, you don't have to go here" for problem-solving. The school has an extremely highly paid "CEO" that will lie to you and makes just about every interaction with him extremely difficult. If you like standardized testing and using those scores to compare your child to others, this is the school for you. All about test scores and provides very few enrichment programs like art and music.
The administration knows 99% of all the students by name. There are always parents at the school volunteering in numerous areas. Teachers are always in contact with parents, formulating ways to help the students achieve their potential. A majority of the faculty and staff have been at the school for numerous years. There is not a lot of turnover. At the end of the year, the grade level teachers get together and discuss each student who is moving up, and choose, as a group, who they feel would be the best teacher for each student, so they will have the best chance at success. They certainly make you feel like family.
My kids are learning so much and they and I both love the friendly atmosphere. The teachers have been great so far and the how cimmunity there feels like family.
