Bob Mathis Elementary School Reviews


Posted By: parent Quality Score: 2 2008-08-01 “My daughter has attended BM since pre-K and I've been pleased with her education until third grade. The administration has changed and several of the more experienced teachers have transferred away from the school citing the change in leadership. This year, I witnessed many dissruptions to learning in the classrooms and my concerns were not addressed by the teacher or the administration. They were only addressed once I complained to the school board. Still my daughter was not transferred from the classroom. The teachers appear to concentrate on getting the kids to past the standardize test; however, the test scores don't reflect that our kids are keeping up with the state average. BM may be one of the best in the area but it is not top notch, nor does it rank well by this body.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2007-09-07 “BM is one of the better EM schools in South Dekalb. The principal doesn't allow the kids to play on their brand new playground for recess. I guess the leadership keeps the teachers in line. The teachers are pretty good, the ones who can put up with the principal. My kids have done fine there so far.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2007-02-27 “Thus school is an hidden treasure and I wish that it went to the 7th grade were my son can stay there and not have to go to middle school. He has learned so much from the teachers there and I would do it all over again” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2006-02-14 “As a parent at this school, I find it hard to believe that there is only one quality math teacher. Has this parent reviewed the test scores and compared 4th grade scores to another grade level? I am very pleased with the 'quality' education that my child is receiving. Remember, education starts at home. While I respect this parent's viewpoint, I encourage you to take a look at what you can do to help your school and your child.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 1 2006-01-06 “Tbe quality of education and quality of teachers at this school have fallen below standard. The princiapl and assistant principal are arrogant. There is only one quality Math instructor who is male on the fourth grade staff. I would like to see many improvements beginning with the administration.”
