"Bullying is out of control at Hodgkin’s Elementary School. The principal does not seem to care and blows off concerned parents or grandparents. She does nothing to protect our kids. A slap on the hand to the bully by sending him home for a day or two then the kid comes back and starts bullying all over again. No repercussions—no follow through. We hear about incidents of bullying at Hodgkin’s EVERY DAY, yet you do not create a plan to safeguard the kids or a put together a plan to help prevent the bullying from occurring OR reoccurring. I realize you have a big job in front of you, but it is still your job. You are responsible for creating a safe environment for our kids. If children suffer anxiety because they are afraid of being the next target, then how can they learn if they’re always watching their back. It prevents the focus they need to do their school work. Plans need to be established and enforced."

"For the most part I believe this is a great school, but the parking and drop off situation is absolutely terrible. Lines of cars dropping off their students and no room to go around the people that decide to drop off at the front door. So waiting for people can cause you to be late when you arrived 10 mins early. Very frustrating and wish they would figure out a better system. Some people actually like to park and walk their child up to the door. Lines of cars blocking the parking makes this nearly impossible."

"Both of my children go here. I was a little skeptical of the school because there is little to no information about the school. Then the reviews you do see a pretty negative. The staff is awesome, the community is wonderful, and the children there are kind. If you're thinking about sending your kiddos here, go into the school and ask for a tour. Ms. Kelly, Ms. Katie and Mrs. Lankutis are wonderful."

"Granddaughter gets picked on daily. They take her stuff and say they won't pick on her anymore. That's a lie. The school doesn't seem to care. They won't set a meeting up so we can talk to parents. These little bullies are most likely to have bros in gangs."

"I am so disappointed with this school. They took my child on an after school field trip without my knowledge or consent didn't hesitate to contact me what so ever, whats worse is it wasn't the first incident but it will be our last. I would not recommend this school to any parent for if it cant happen more then once it'll still keep happening."
