Irby staff are disrespectful, discriminatory and unprofessional. They do not value children and refuse to accommodate those with special needs. The children are pounded all day with reading and math and learn next to nothing about anything else.

I have not had a good experience at all with this school and If I knew I was going to have so many problems my daughter would have started out at a private school. To make this clear my daughter is not the problem it is Mrs. Fortner so it is truly the leadership of this school in question.

Great staff, great teachers and principal! Warm and inviting. Teachers are probably some of the best teachers Alachua has to offer. Very happy with this school.
