School Reviews
2 10/10/2025
My child has attended Teasley since Kindergarten and is now in 4th grade. This used to be a wonderful school but year after year it just gets worst. The teachers lack enthusiasm and seem to not want to be there. They are more concerned with sharing the details of their personal lives with the children than actually instructing. Whenever you bring a concern up to any of the administration you are met with a combative attitude making it difficult to want to be involved with the school. For any instances of bullying when your child has a concern, if they attempt to report it to administration they are told that they are snitching. I have no idea what has happened to this school but I can't wait to get my child OUT!
