Meramec Elementary School, St. Louis | Fees, Rankings, Address, Admission, Vacancies, Reviews & More

I personally don’t have children who attend this elementary school. I have visited several times. An acquaintance’s daughter attends here. She is currently in the second grade. My last visit was this past Halloween. Her teacher called and said she needed a costume. I came as a witch. I took her into the bathroom. The bathroom was unclean and smelled very poorly. As I changed her into her costume, she appeared gloomy. I asked, “What’s wrong with you?” She replied, “My teacher said we’re not having a party because we have been bad.” Her reply made me question the staff’s communication skills with students. I personally didn’t find her teacher’s comment appropriate for students. I do have concerns about the teacher’s ability to provide students with the skills they require to become successful. She’s in the second grade and doesn’t know how to read. She doesn’t even get excited about reading or learning. Why? Her grades were very poor. Each subject had a failing grade on her last report card. It was odd. I have met the principle and he’s a middle aged black guy. He seems hopeful but I feel as though the school is not an adequate learning environment.
