Ms. Rankin as another African American woman to another. I am rising my daughter to see all people and situations with an open mind and I am embarrassed how easily you throw out the word racists. That seems like our race does that a lot when something doesn’t go our way. My daughter has gone to James A. Allison for many years and when I have ever had a question or a concern with anything I have sat down and talked with the person as what any intelligent person would do. From reading your previous reviews of other establishments most of them are very negative. It seems like you are a very negative person and you might want to reflect on your own personal life.

The two reviews that were posted today were very upsetting to me. My 2 children are currently attending James A. Allison and I have had nothing but a great experience. My youngest had Mrs. Duman last year and she is so kind and caring. Also, I do want to bring something to your attention Ms. Rankin and Ms. Dowdy you might want to do your homework about the principal. His father, brother and sister are African American so I am not sure how he could be a racist or a bigot.

Bedwell is a bigot and a racist that yells at children.. Hes in the wrong position because he treats those kids like inmates.. He pretends to be nice when parents are around but hes the worst when theyre not... I will be filing an complaint against him tomorrow for the mistreatment of my daughter...

My daughter was only at the school for 3 weeks before I removed her. Whitley Duman and the principal are both bigots. Whitley went so far as to call CPS on me, because I questioned her teaching. She made it clear she did not like my child because she is half Mexican and came from a private school. She tried to say I mentally incompetent, that I believe my child is a model. My child is a model, and has agents in 2 different states. A simple Facebook search of my name, you could easily find my daughters IG account with proof that she is a working model and actor. CPS launched an investigation against her for false reporting with ill intent. I believe Whitley was under the influence of drugs or alcohol and is a danger to all students. Needless to say, my kid is back in private school and yes, it only has like 20% diversity.There are 2 people writing fake reviews about me. Deja Dutreuil and Gabby Smith are fictional people. Neither are parents or students at Allison Elementary and my daughter was NOT in class with any child that had a parent named Gabby. The teacher, herself is posting reviews herself to hide the truth. Deja Dutreuil, also posts disgusting things about my 6 year old daughter on her IG page. It is clear that it is just a troll. There is a current police report and child abuse report against this teacher and school. My kid has attended mostly white schools and has never had any problems. If diversity was an issue for us, we would NOT had went to a Speedway school. My child is also biracial and we come from a family of whites, blacks, Hispanics, and Alaskan natives! I only state facts in ALL reviews positive and negative!

Its a really good school with hardworking kids and teachers

Great staff!!!
