I attended this elementary school from 2014-2019 and I must say it was one of the worst experiences of my entire childhood. I was bullied every single year i attended this school, with nothing done to help. instead of helping me, my bullies were rewarded for treating me how they did. It got to the point where even teachers started to bully me as well, and it got to a point of me versus everybody else. There was absolutely nothing that could’ve been done. on top of that; after not caring about my bullying, they decided to bring in a counselor to start an “art class“ (which you would think would be normal) except for the fact that they were fishing to try to get kids taken away from their parents, Which also happened to me. I’m not saying that this has happened to everybody, but what I am saying is that that is one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had in a school district.

Get ready... This is going to be long, brutally honest. Tucker is an okay school depending upon who you are. If you're extroverted & great at making friends with teachers & staff then you're set. You'll also always be well liked if you're willing to go WAY BEYOND on teacher appreciation even though most of those teachers don't appreciate anything they get. The series of principals that have paraded through there in the 8 years my numerous children have attended just cater to every whim of those whiny, unappreciative teachers who barely get involved with school matters, like events and such.

If you're more introverted, & just like to volunteer at her kiddos school, you may or may not be accepted. Your wealth, status, & level of volunteerism will quickly sway someone's opinion of your quiet, shy demeanor. I have neither wealth nor status & am unable to volunteer much due to my job. My not being able to help much, actually destroyed a friendship alongside the help of a parent who's better liked than I. Before I had a job here, I volunteered ALL the time & was well liked but when my situation changed, so did the staffs opinions.

The office staff has recently made a complete change. One secretary retired & the other was fired, then arrested. Yeah, you read that right. That terrible nurse is long gone, too. The new nurse & office staff is much friendlier. There've been SOME great teachers, some questionable ones, and others that I think should seriously consider a new profession, preferably one that doesn't involve children. I don't recommend this school to anyone, IF they can avoid it, but sometimes you just don't have a choice.

Now, to reference some of the things on this page. The 15 to 1 student/teacher ratio is laughable. There's roughly 600 students & 22 teachers. Every classroom has only one teacher, including kindergarten, & each of those has anywhere from 20-30 students depending on the grade. Do the math; it's more than 15. The Pre-K students shouldn't be included in the ratio because they aren't actually part of Tucker. It's an income-based program that just happens to be held at Tucker. When the kids are ready for Kinder, they get sent off to their boundary school, 75% of whom won't attend Tucker. 95% of teachers have been there a while because they never get rid of anyone. I can't argue test results but basically every kid passes every grade. The demographic is pretty accurate. That's all I can say because I'm out of characters. Good luck, y'all!

This school has been amazing. Everyone in the office is amazing, sweet, and always helpful. Every teacher my daughter has had has been amazing so far, we have been there K - 2. She is super sad to leave her school now that she has to go to a new one, but she had great memories. They have always been great at making sure that all the kids are treated fairly and have a zero tolerance bully policy that they have enforced several times with my daughter and I am truly grateful. Great place to send your child for sure.

This school picks and chooses which children they are concerned about. My son has been bullied severel times this year by students and now a teacher. He has defended himself both phiscaly and verbalry and was disaplended for it. We constantly geed feed back that he dosen't follow directions. However he gets good grades. He is involved in many after school activities. Several sports and kids clubs which we never hear anything but how teachable he is and how great his attitude is. This school has some really great teachers and if your lucky you will get one. If not be there for your kids its going to be a long school year.

Tucker elementary is an OK school. Teachers are fairly nice. The front desk ladies are terrible! Very rude that I interrupted their day with my sick child being picked up. Oh and the nurse is a character too. She didn't even greet me to pickup my child. She turned her head and told me here he is and turned back around to finish her lovely conversation with the office ladies. I don't think that's how you should greet any parent especially treat a child. We will be changing schools. Now I know why all the other parents left too!
