Bunch of rude staff working on park view elementary school. They are not helpful specially for new kids parents. The receptionist lady always scares me when I hear his voice I always forget why I am calling. My pre-k boy is going to school every day I am trying to contact to teacher she never answered my mail. My son cried every day and don’t want to go to school I want to know so many things that is very stressful but nobody helps me.

If your child has a learning disability do not count on them to help. You will feel as if they want you to find somewhere else to go. The curriculum is heavily based on test performance.
If your child performs well, good for them. If not, you’re on your own.

The teachers see your child as much more than a test score!

I have now had a child at this school for 10 straight years. I love this school! The teachers actually care about all aspects of your child. It is not simply about test scores like some schools in the area. I have had a few teachers that have gone out of their way to work with me to help my child through difficulties. I have only had positive experiences with the many many teachers that I have dealt with over the past decade. I had one child go through the gifted program and one not, so I have seen both sides of the school. I am very sad that this will be our last year!

I have to agree with the teacher who posted before me. This schools run by a principle who can't/won't be a authority figure to the teachers. If your child is in the gifted program they will be fine being there are only 15 kids in each gifted class. While the rest are in 29-32 students per class. If your child struggles they will not do what is state mandated but railroad you into finding another school to go to. They do not care about your kid only about leap test scores! We were at this school for 3 yrs & will never go back! 2nd grade teachers are Horrible! This school should be investigated for violating kids civil rights to education! Beware patents!

Just like other public schools in Baton Rouge, this one has started focusing so much on results rather than a whole-mind educational approach. Core Knowledge is a great educational program, but teachers cannot implement it because of the mounting responsibilities the State puts upon them. As a whole, the teachers are dedicated and do their best with what is given to them. However, major decisions are made by a few and there is much favoritism... like a 'popular' group in a high school cafeteria. I once would have been honored to have my child attend this school based on reputation. But now that I realize that it is just as obsessed with the bottom line as many other public schools, I would consider other prospects.

Great school! Teachers and principal are very accessible. Parental involvement is highly encouraged! The gifted and talented programs are fantastic!
