Children are like animals in the zoo. Only organization this school possess is in its dismissal and thats barely there. I wouldnt enroll my child if it was the only Shelby County School left. Its like visiting wild animals.

My name is lil Reggie and this school sucks all the children do is talk and dont learn enething .and Mr.Rogers the 5th grade math teacher just stop teaching if they start talking .PLEASE do NOT send youre children here at dummy ass school Holmes.

I currently have a first grader attending Holmes Road Elem and so far Im very disappointed. ..The students are only numbers...and the teachers really dont care about the students...especially my childs teacher...shes young..and doesnt have patience with them especially the ones who have IEPs..on top of that shes out the class at least three times outof the week..its always a different teacher there and to me its confusing the kids..to see a different teacher almost every week. ..I.dont feel as if my kid is learning anything..shes not...this teacher I will say doesnt care...and the Principal. ..smh...he seemsaid to think hes big and bad and that youre to jump when asked how high. I REALLY HAD HIGH HOPES FOR THIS SCHOOL IN TURN TO BE DISAPPOINTED. .

Holmes road elementary has got to be the worst school in the city. The teachers here dont care they are there only for a check and its pretty obvious the kids learn absolutely nothing. The teachers and the whole staff are very unprofessional seem like they just hired anybody to work up in there. l can actually count on one hand how many decent people there that are working in the entire school. The worst part l think is when your kid is failing they blame you the parent, because its never them youre the one at fault. They blame the child for failing not the school not the system everyone there just wants to cover theyre own hides. The principal there is one of the most uncaring, unprofessional, lacking no leadership skills person l have ever seen, he shouldnt even be allowed to run a school period. The principle walks around that school like everyone supposed to be scared of him and he thinks hes some god. He has all those teachers up there scared of him so he thinks you supposed to be too. The teachers there give parents dirty looks and they will fail your child due to the simple fact that they dont like you. My sons second grade teacher was very cynical she only made little slick comments about my son and why he was failing just to take the blame off her by trying to shift the blame on me and him, but its quite strange that my son learned more and passed in a 20 day summer school class than he did in this teacher class in a whole year so that says alot about her teaching ability. I guess this teacher thinks because shes old she can make lil slick comments and your not gonna pick up on it... but Ive been on to her condescending nature for a long time. If your child happens to have an IEP dont even waste your time sitting thru them, because you would just be wasting an hour of your life u cant get back. The only purpose of the IEP meeting is to just find everything your doing wrong as a parent and again blame you and the child for the child doing poorly academically. Its never coming together to see what all we as parents and teachers can do to help this child nothing but a lot of slick comments and blaming. The principal if he sits in on your childs iep meeting he acts like he really dont wanna be there he has a lil nasty attitude and be having dirty looks on his face. And oh once you leave the iep meeting they do nothing, but talk about you and your child to everyone else... bad talk about you just because you wont put your child on some medicine just to basically dope them up and teach them a bunch of lies and they learn nothing anyway so your child will just be a doped up, uneducated dummy in the long run if he/she is enrolled here or have an iep. Im so glad l took my kids outta this school it was the best thing l could have done for them and l hate l let them go there in the 1st place. This school doesnt even deserve 1 star the only reason l gave it that so l could leave this review and that is sad. I really do hope this school is shut down or at least they get that principal and staff outta there and get a whole new one to start fresh, because this would be the only chance this school has.

I go there and marlyn Moore is my bestfriend of that school

Use to be a five star school, but God 2017&2018 God help us, it is really messed up,

Yeah it has probably changed since 2014

Smh..worst school my child has been enrolled in...3rd grade..the teachers are just there for a paycheck..3 of my childs books are missing and they are trying to blame her..after 1 of the books was found and is now missing again..school board has already been contacted...this school doesnt even deserve the 1 star...

I go there
