    Tamra is an AMAZING advocate for special education students in our county as well as the disabled…read morecommunity in general. Tamra is extremely knowledgeable regarding myriad services for children and adults and is an amazing asset to families and our community. I am a single mother of 4 here in Wake County and 2 of my children are severely autistic with other differences including sensory processing issues and pica. I had the absolute pleasure of meeting Tamra when she was assigned as my child's case manager during her tenure at the CDSA (Children's Developmental Services Agency). Tamra helped me with services for my child and also gave me a lot of advice for my other child that was already in the school system with an IEP. Tamra can help with guidance during IEP meetings and advocate for your child and I can tell you from my personal experience, she will treat your child/children as if they were her own. Tamra was even attentive and answered questions for my 2 children that don't have special needs, but were learning along with me. Tamra is very professional, attentive, determined and I promise you, you would not regret having her help you navigate the complex world of disabilty services, the school system and acquiring other services. I was extremely overwhelmed when we first met because both of my children had just been diagnosed, but Tamra took us under her wing and made me feel so much more confident and comfortable with the processes. My children love Tamra and her family....it was funny because when she started working with us we found out she literally lived in the same subdivision. Tamra's family has become framily (friends that are pretty much family).....because when people go above and beyond and do so much for your family.....they often become just like family and you develop a deep connection and respect. I am so proud of Tamra for making this leap into consulting and starting her own business and I am also so extremely thankful that our community has her. You would not regret having her help you and your family......she's top notch in every way.

    Tamra was super helpful in helping me navigate through an IEP request, as well as, creating…read morespecific accommodations for my child. The laws and regulations can be a bit confusing, especially with navigating for the first time. I highly recommend Tamra to help navigate through the confusing world of IEP's and 504's.

    This school makes me want to turn back the clock and be a kid again! It's a dream come true for a…read morebright kid who doesn't have just one area of focus. The teachers have been wonderful about letting my child check out things he's interested in and develop his own interests and opinions. He's gotten to try writing fairy tales, learning about sea life, and art club. He is in love with the chess club most of all - Coach Indermaur is awesome and so dedicated! The school just feels like it's brimming with possibilities. The teachers and leadership go very far out of their way to make sure they're not leaving kids behind due to special needs, poverty, or even behavioral issues. The communication from the school, PTA, teacher, and principal has been beyond impressive. The involvement and volunteerism from the parents truly blows me away. Most of the volunteers have jobs (like I do) but build in time where we can to be a part of what this school is doing. Every time I leave the building, I realize I've been smiling the whole time I've been there. The added focus on early AIG-related teaching has been wonderful. I truly don't see how other schools manage it when they can't identify or give additional enrichment to AIG kids before 4th grade. An intellectually gifted kid in a regular class is a teacher's nightmare. People think "intellectually gifted" means the kid who sits up front and knows all the answers and reads all the time. It's often the kid who won't quiet down, the one who is obstinate toward the teacher, or the one who interrupts the other kids. More difficult work and added academic challenges are an important part of the solution there, and other schools don't provide much support there. Hunter has teachers and a principal who "get it" when it comes to this, and they're willing to work with you and your child to allow them to become their best version of themselves through work, practice, support, and structure. Every teacher I've worked with thus far seems genuinely happy to be at the school, and my son's teacher has been a standout star in an already very bright field of stars. Just seeing the difference in my kid's knowledge, writing, reading, and attitude in the past 3 semesters is proof positive that she is an expert at her very difficult job. I cannot say enough good things about the school. Love, love, love Hunter!

    So I have been sending the little clones to this school for the past 4 years now. Just like any…read moreschool, it has it's ups, and it's downs. The normal school day runs from 9:15 AM to 3:45 PM. They have a before school program, but not an after school program, so your kids MUST be picked up for 4:00 PM. And if you call after 4:00 PM, unless you have somebody's mobile phone, or direct line, the front desk will not answer the phone. The do serve what they consider "a nutritional" lunch. But I say, it is only nutritional IF AND ONLY IF two things happen. 1) You don't burn or over cook it. Then all the nutritional value is gone. 2) If the kids eat it. If it is burnt, or dried up like a brick, then the kids will not eat it. If it taste like, hmm, in the words of my 7 years old, the food sucks, then the kids will not eat it. Here is a true story, I went to have lunch with my kids at school, when I got there for the first one, he was eating a salad. Now, this kids loves his veggie tables more than most kids, but he is also a T-Rex with his carnivorous appetite. I did think it was kinda strange, but I didn't realize till I was having lunch with the next one. I actually went through the line with him, and he just chooses the safe option everyday, and eats a PB&J. I could not even recognize some of the food. But if you really want to know how good the food is, check out the staff, and see how many of them eat it. I would say about 95% of them bring their lunch. Now that makes you ask, if it is so healthy and nutritious, why don't the people who work their eat it? But I have to admit, the school food is better than it was there two years ago, so I will give them that. As far as electives, since Hunter is a AG/GT Magnet School of Distinction and has won awards, they do have a nice variety of elective programs. Some of the teachers are the nicest people you will meet in the world. The music teacher, Mrs. Taylor, is not just a music teacher, but actually plays in orchestra and symphony concerts, so you know she is good. She is also super nice, and whenever she has extra concert tickets, she shares them with her students families. The school likes to invite authors, poets, dancers, musicians, you know real famous people to the school and have them talk to the kids One of the authors was the writer of "Where the Wild Things Are." The school does try and have a good curriculum. They recently started a "Walkers Club" for those that get there early in the morning. You can do a few laps around the track, and earn points. You know kids, they love points. Not sure what they get at the end, but they still love points. So, in the end, if you want to know more about Hunter Elementary, take a tour. While you are there, if you see some parents around ask them. And for the new orientation, when I attended, they handed out what I call a "Kidnap me" directory. That a book with the name, address, e-mail and phone number of all the kids that go to the school. You can opt to have some of the information removed from the directory at the beginning of the year, but you better catch them before they publish it. But come on, who just hands that information out to total strangers the first time you meet them. Be a little bit more secure with that info. That is why I wanted only wanted their name, my name, and the phone number listed. Everybody, their momma, and their daddy don't need to know where I live. Not that I have anything to hide, but do you want a book floating around that could fall into the wrong hands with everybody's info in it? Did I go off topic, sorry. Just my personal thoughts. But go check out Hunter, they are a decent school for the most part.

    It breaks my heart to post this review.  However, people have a right to know the truth. Currently,…read moretwo of my three children attend The Montessori School of Winston-Salem.  We are not returning due to the actions of the Head of School. On the surface, the Head of School is kind and charming as long as you play by the rules he establishes instead of what is written in the Montessori Handbook and the Blueprint for Our Montessori School.  In the school parking lot on the morning of February 12, 2019, I had to defend myself in a verbal altercation with the Head of School that left me in shock. The Head of School, Jonathan Churn approached my vehicle after my children successfully walked into school.  He started a passive-aggressive conversation questioning how I dropped my children off to school that morning. I asked him why he was targeting me as my children walked into school safely on the sidewalk while I actively supervised them breaks no known school rules.  He stated, "I address everything I see," and then quickly escalated the conversation by leaning into my car window, clapped in my face, and in an elevated tone said, "I am frustrated with you. This is what you're gonna do. You are either going to walk your children into school, or use the car line."  In my seventeen years as a mother, I have never experienced anything like the level of disrespect that I endured from Mr. Churn. At best it was unprofessional behavior.  At worst it was racially motivated as an African-American mother who feels targeted by him.  I am one of a handful of African-American parents at the school. I have witnessed other parents blatantly disregard school handbook rules (i.e., not getting out of your vehicle during car line daily) while Mr. Churn watches and says nothing.  Yet, he has tried to micromanage and target certain families. Has anyone else been treated in such a manner at this school? If not, then why me? The Head of School thought so little of me that he clapped in my face like I was a dog and had the nerve to tell me he was "frustrated" with me for the reason that is still unclear. My husband filed a grievance regarding this event and attended an initial informal meeting. The Board of Trustees was asked to provide their leadership as the Blueprint tasks them to provide supervision for the Head of School. My husband has requested multiple times that I am contacted by someone and no one is willing to even call me despite the handbook stating, "Every effort will be made to address the issue through conferences involving Head of School and those concerns."  While there are many excellent teachers at TMS, I still do not recommend it. A school environment should feel robust. Unfortunately, this school has deficiencies. A major one being that it does not represent the city socioeconomically or ethnically. The central campus (located extremely close to a registered sex offender) climate feels incredibly stagnant. Yet, there was an entirely new school built that boasts a total of five students, two of which are the Head of School's children. Under this type of leadership, I highly encourage any parent considering this school to look elsewhere.

    This place is alright. They keep to the Montessori theme for the most part. They are not accredited…read morebut they are working towards it. I think someone would be happy here, just don't think that it's going to be the whole Montessori experience. Certainly better than some schools for sure. I suppose I wouldn't tell people either way to go to Montessori School of Winston-Salem or not to. If you want something at least close to Montessori and for the most part is Montessori then go ahead and give it a try. After a couple of years investigating I wish I had gone with the other Montessori that is available downtown Winston Salem. If you have the chance and can go to the down town school even better. They have two Certified Montessori teachers per classroom at Salem Montessori.
