Henderson Hammock Charter School

My child goes to school here and we have been happy with this school so far. It is a charter school so there are no busses and much of the school funding and events are through fundraisers and parent volunteers. The school and building is fairly new and still has room to grow and kinks to work out. The car line can be a bear and often backs up traffic on both Henderson and Linebaugh but the teachers who man the line are wonderful and have the kids’ safety at heart. I don’t love the turf field behind the school or that 8^th graders are in the same building as Kindergartners but we have not seen any issues with this personally. My child seems to be learning a lot and the teacher is dedicated and caring. The admissions process can be daunting as communication is not the school’s strongpoint and the dress code is strict from head to toe. There are mandatory volunteer hours that parents must commit to. I do recommend this school but make sure to do research and know what you are getting into prior to enrolling!
