I have a fairly decent experience at this school. I find the pricipal to be somewhat friendly. Each time I had to deal with her it was very pleasent. My childs teacher is very good at her job and she is concerned about her students. I have noticed alot of parent participation during the school year.

This is an awful elementary school. The principle walks around with a look of do not talk to me! She is not compassionate at all! She does not care when a parent is trying to explain things to her. The teachers that I've had contact with have no clue. My children's grades have drop dramatically since being enrolled in this school. I will be transferring them in the fall.

The principal is beyond dreadful, she makes everyone feel like an outsider when they come to the school to see about their children. My children's morale has gone down the toilet because the environment is so bad that a proper education is almost impossible. I am in the process of sending my children to another school IMMEDIATELY.

Barbara Jordan school has good academic programs and tutorial support. It has instrumental and music training starting in K thru 8 grade. Basketball, cheerleading, pep squad, academic games, and other extracurricular activities are available as well. Parental involvement is at levels comparable to most schools in the district. This school has improved dramatically in the last 3-4 years. In 2004-2005 seven of its 8th graders passed and were accepted at the best examination high schools in the city. As a parent I am proud to say thet my children attend this school.
