I have never been happier with a school. I have 2 children who attend Sheppard and 2 that are older but I wish we lived here when my 2 older were younger also so they could have this experience

The send kids to the principal as a reward and let them play instead of following the lesson plan

Horrible. When addressing an issue with your child in a professional manner the principal gets offended and will yell at you in the office.

We love this school. My kids went to West Foundation first but were not happy there. From the first day we came there the Principal and teachers have been loving and great to our kids. We come from the Netherlands and are stationed here for only 3,5 years. It was very difficult for the kids in the beginning but they've felt so welcome here at Sheppard elem. They have learned so much! I would defenitly recommend this school if you're looking for a great, warm, loving school and teachers!

We love Sheppard elementary school and are super sad to be leaving at the end of this year. Both of our kids attended this school and we have nothing but wonderful things to say. Ms. Waddell, the principal, goes out of her way to get to know each and every child (as well as the parents). The teachers genuinely strive to teach the material in a way that fits the child and are more than willing to offer additional help after school if content is challenging for the child to learn. There are numerous after school clubs and programs that the kids may participate in. Our daughter loved singing in the choir with Ms. Taylor and our son was a member of Student Council with Ms. DeLeon - both programs I can't recommend enough. By far this is the best elementary school that our kids have attended and we are sad to leave. Trust me - if you have the opportunity to send your child to this school - do it! You won't be sorry!
