E. C. West Elementary School Reviews


Posted By: parent Quality Score: 3 2008-07-21 “The school is average. Not overly impressed. I'm from NY and the curriculum here is so much slower, I have to home school my child just to keep him challenged and up to speed of where he should be. I think the school needs stronger lessons and challenge the students in a position for harder assignments.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2008-06-21 “I love this school. I have two children at ec west and they both look forward everyday to going to school. Right now they are mad that they could not go during the summer. The teachers and staff are so loving and friendly. The principal is just as wonderful and really cares about the students and parents, being quick to address any issues or concerns. The education is above what i thought it would be for a public school. Both of my children are in the talented program and my daughters class is being kept together for the upcoming school year teacher and all. Because of how well they did in class work and the crct. Im soo happy..” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2007-12-23 “We've been apart of EC West for the past 4 years and I really enjoy my kids being apart of this school. My son and now my daughters have great teachers who are willing to work with them and us. My sons teachers each year have gone above and beyond many times for him. The staff is helpful and friendly. We've got a great principal who is attentive and always striving for excellance!” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 2 2007-11-01 “I am very disappointed with the academic curriculum, the teachers, and lack of school security. This is the second year my children have attended this school and I have not seen any improvement. I will be enrolling my children in a tutoring program so they can be academically challenged. Teachers are in a great position to really make a mark on a childs life. I have honor roll students with excellent behavior. My children are doing a great job because I spend a lot of time teaching them at home. It is unfortunate that I am doing the work but the teachers are receiving the paycheck! As soon as I can afford it, my children will be attending a private school.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: decline 2007-09-13 “this school is bad i am a very involved parent but i have never seen a school that has poor leadership and teachers who only care about a paycheck!” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 1 2007-09-13 “There are very few teachers who care about the students. The leadership at this school is very alarming. The trailers are not secure at all anybody can walk up to the trailers. The fire alarm system does not work in the trailers there are no restrooms for students in the trailers they have to walk to the main building alone!!! Thats scary for a parent knowing that the poor leadership at this school is alarming. I just moved to the Fairburn area but i have chose to home my child. 'Unvelievable non safety'” Posted By: teacher Quality Score: 5 2007-06-27 “Being a veteran teacher of 14 years, I have truly found a place where learning is really child-centered. New to the Fulton County system, it's a breath of fresh air to work in a school with such great teachers and administrators. There was a genuine care for students, and because of this, they looked forward to coming to school each day, and so did I. Working with the Promethean ActivBoard makes learning more fun for the students, as it allows them to actively participate in their learning. For the teacher, it provides the opportunity for a wealth of teaching options and facilitates in the planning and preparation of GPS lessons. The support shown to me from my colleagues and administrators made my move here flow much smoother, and I truly look forward to returning to this awesome school next year.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2007-05-23 “I have the unique privilege of being a parent and teacher at Evoline C. West and I have enjoyed both. As a parent, I can rest assured that my two boys will be challenged academically and taught the essentials for life-long growth. It's encouraging to see schools out there that care about the development of the whole child and offer discipline, opportunities for creativity, and skill development. Our extracurricular activities range from soccer clinics to father-daughter dances. Our PTA is strong. The administrative team in supportive and responsive. The teachers are knowledgeable, dedicated, and create authentic learning experiences for the children. As a teacher, I see the 'backstage' perspective, and I am equally impressed with how teachers and staff prepare for instruction. We have some of the most incredible teachers in Fulton County. This great staff coupled with the amazing technology in each classroom makes for a wonderful combination. Kudos!” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2007-05-01 “We've moved 3 times in 3 years. My 6 year old has been in 3 different schools since her Pre-K program. Due to frequent moves, my daughter has experienced difficulties with adjusting until we came to this school. Her teachers have been just fabulous. My 6 year old is in talented students program, enjoys art, PE and music as well as visits to the library. My dauther even mentioned that EC West is the best school and wants her kids, when she gets married and have kids, to go to EC West. Proud and grateful mother of EC West Student” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2007-03-06 “I am a mother of four. EC West has been a part of our lives for 4 years. The principal and his leadership team are very attentive to parents needs and concerns. The teachers are great! The school is clean. I've been asked for ID, which is a good feeling. I've seen corrective measures taken in hallways and in the cafeteria areas...where the staff is demanding respect and requiring the children to follow rules. I feel very much a part of the school family. I participate in many of the events and visit the school often. I'm always greeted by the staff. My children love the school, and so do I.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 2 2005-10-13 “Academics programs need improvement, administration tends to focus on 3rd and 5th grades because of state testing, Adminisrtative staff do not respond to parental concerns very well if at all also poorly organized. There are some good teachers but overal teachers staff rated below average Security after morning bell: school not secure. Trailers in rear of school are an inconvienent for students (restroom etc.) need security fence or officers near trailers located near parking lot, easy acces for strangers Quality overal needs big improvements!”
