This a very bad school. I do not recommend it. The teachers are not fair and treat other students better than the others.
When I first moved here, I was so excited to be within the Aldridge schhol zone. I heard how lucky we were...there is a waiting list a mile long to get into the school, the education was top notch, etc. Unfortunately, I have not had a single good experience with the school. The school secretary is rude and trys to assert power she does not actually have. Several times when I requested meetings with the principal I was told she was unavailable or off campus at a meeting. How can you be a principal of a schhol when you are never there? The assistant principal made very rude, judgemental and inappropriate comments to me when I questioned some school practices. Minor problems with age appropriate behavior were not handled in the classroom...students were sent to the principal's office. If I could send my child to another school I would without hesitation.
Aldridge is a wonderful school. My oldest daughter will be going into her 5th year there and my younger daughter will start this fall. We have not seen a high turnover in teachers. Quite the opposite. Ms. Carruther's has a wonderful staff. There is a high level of dedication to the children. There is great parent involvement, which is key. Our experience has been great. We recommend this school to anyone.
My daughter has now attended Aldridge for two years, and I am very impressed with the teachers, principal and staff. She has progressed academically, and she loves being at school. Here first grade teacher has been with Aldridge for more than 30 years, and there are many other teachers that have been with Aldridge for many years. I'm proud of the fact that there are some transfer students at Aldridge. It means that Aldridge is a good school to be attending, if people go through the efforts to be there. Aldridge is currently going through a renovation. It's going to be up to date and beautiful when it's finished.
