Research Hazel Park/Hilda Knoff School public Schools in New Orleans, Louisiana

“Both my girls have went to HP. since Kindergarten. They each have had quality teachers who teach values as well as lessons. Of course each child is so different from each other where one excels in one area the other excels in another area and the school seems to balance it out so the child is well rounded. If you are moving into this area then I would strongly recommend Hazel Park for your K-5th. grader. The only downside of this school is the lack of parent involvement. I don't know what it would take for more parents to get involved with their child's education. We have PTO meetings with the children performing and that seems to be the only time parents come to the school. I would imagine other schools all over have this same problem. Our principal is truly a leader that has a heart of a mom.”

“My two sons both attended HPHK from Pre-K through 5th grade, with 7 years between. Both boys had excellent experiences there. If exceptional ability exists in a student, it is identified early on, giving the child an opportunity to experience a gifted and/or talented learning environment. HPHK's current principal (Mrs. Karen Bucher) is dedicated, fair, and readily available for communication with parents. There were many teachers still employed there who taught me years ago, and were still there to teach my children. I highly recommend HPHK. It is a safe, secure and enriching school.”

“Hazel Park/Hilda Knoff is a terrific school. The principal as well as the teachers are wonderful. The school has a good structured environment. It is now being renovated with new hallway floors and ceilings. The office is being redone and expanded. The bathrooms were renovated last year. The school has a lot of great qualities. The PTO is strong and there are extra cirricular activities for the children. There is high recgonition for good grades and good conduct every nine weeks. My daughter, now in 5th grade has a folder full of certificates from HP going back to kindergarten. My son is just starting his journey through HP and I'm proud that he will be there through 5th grade.”

“As parents of 2 young daughters I am proud to say this school is a part of their childhood and learning experience. The teachers as well as the principal thrive to excel each student to achieve the best possible education their little minds can handle. We chose this school over our local school due to the educational challenges this school provides. This school gets an A+ in my book.”

“I am satisfied that my grandchildren are getting a quality academic education, and proud of my kids for providing supervised activities away from school after they have done their homework!”

“My older son, age 13 and currently in the eighth grade, attended Hazel Park-Hilda Knoff school from Kindergarten through the fifth grade. My younger son, age 8, is currently in the third grade there, and has also attended Hazel Park since Kindergarten. I think this is a great school, and I am very pleased with the education that my children have received there. We are so fortunate to have such a wonderful faculty and staff, as well as a great group of parents who volunteer their time in and around the school and do so much for the school. My children have both had nothing but positive experiences here. My son looks forward to going to school every day.”

“My daughter attended this school during her second grade year. I was extremely dissappointed. There were no extracurricular activites, the library was poorly stocked and the overall appeareance was uninviting. My daughter made straight 'A's' and there was absolutly no recognition program for her hard work. Because of this schools performance, our family moved back to Dallas.”
