"I initially was excited about having my child attend here. However, after one 'incident' after another, I have learned that this school isn't as great as what people say. After discussing the school and a transfer with my husband, we spoke to some other parents that said they had removed their kids from Shady Oaks also. I have received 'anonymous' emails from parents accusing the administration of preferential treatment. I have heard my kid's teacher lose her patience and yell at the kids. The PTA is a joke. They are bullies. I honestly think the principal told me what she thinks I wanted to hear rather than be upfront about issues when we discussed my concerns. I have experienced my child being called 'chaos' from the teacher in front of the entire class and have watched as a biased colored dot tells me about how the teacher feels she has behaved. The 'behavior grading system' of red, yellow and green dots is entirely arbitrary to her teacher.I am sure the school is great for some families. I just feel children deserve better and that it all begins with the school's administration and how they handle problems."

"My daughter went there, now my granddaughter goes there and I feel it's a highly rated school in our area, staff is great. Other reasons also."

"Respect is the order of every day at Shady Oaks. The children respect themselves, each other, and authority. In the hallway, classroom, or cafeteria - wherever children congregate, an adult is in charge. In this environ, children thrive. Self actualization is permitted and tolerance for each child's abilities is routine. I know my child is gaining a wonderful education at Shady Oaks, including important lessons in addition to the traditional 'three R's'. She's learning how to behave with Respect, a valuable 'fourth R'."

"I think this is a good school, however, it has not met my expectations. I was very happy that my child would be in a 'Core Knowledge' school, however, there seems to be a lack of interest from the administration of this school to actually make 'Core Knowledge' a priority. As far as parent involvement goes, that is also lacking. Therefore, you have a handful of parents who work very hard because the rest are pretty much absent from any volunteer opportunities. I am pleased with the teachers. They do an excellent job. They are very caring. In a nutshell, my main concerns are in regard to the curriculum and lack of parental involvement."
