Southgate Elementary School Reviews

My child went to school at Southgate for one year and that was enough for our family. Terrible neighborhood school. Thank goodness we were accepted into the gifted program. If not, I do not know what we would have done.

I love Southgate. My kids have been there for 4 years. Everything about this school is fabulous.

This school has terrible communication between teachers and parents. Teachers ignore notes and doctors orders. If you have an interest in a good edcuation for your child and especially if your child is a special needs child, do not send him/her to this school.

The teachers at southgate are wonderful! Ms. Francis, Ms. Hill, & Ms. Barto made a huge difference in both of my children! Mr. Schilling is an ideal principal. The entire school cares very much about all their students.

My child is in Kindergarten and has some special needs. He is so happy and content. I am pleased with the extra attention he receives, and I see that he has made incredible progress in the last six months. I think Ms. Francis is great; also the Asst. Principal, Deborah!

My experience at Southgate to date has been great. Mr. Schilling is a kind and active principal. The teachers are extremely caring and creative with the kids.

The teachers at Southgate are wonderful, and I must compliment the two teachers that have been the best for my son Patrick, Mrs Francis and Mrs Ward. They truly care about our children and left a great impression on him.
