  • The 6th grade teachers are toooooooo strict. They do not take any excuses even if their is a death in the family. They do teach a lot and are innovative. I don't like that a couple of the teachers pick on kids. There are some awesome teachers at APHE though. 6th grade teachers need to chill though.

  • I think this school is a nice school, the teachers are a little strict, but I learn a lot! But I think we should have lockers so we don't half to keep our backpack on our chairs. Also I think that we should switch classes, it is more fun and we could spend more time with different teachers, its good for you know! And that's what I think about Amy Parks Heath Elementary School (APHE)!!!!!
