NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating Averagemy daughter goes to Jefferson, and the teachers there are great. I just wanted to point out that this sites student to teacher ratio is off. Its more like 24 students to 1 teacher.Parent Review12y ago - Lincoln Elementary School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAbsolutely the worst school my kids have ever attended. My son has adhd and I am well aware of how "out of hand" he can be at times. He was not suspended all year and all the sudden in the last month he's been suspended two times. Most recently incident being yesterday, they wanted to give him an in-school and claimed that they didn't want to suspend him but my girlfriend just pulled them out of the school for the remainder of the year because she's tired of hearing from them . The secretary told my son (in front of me)that "he doesn't care about anything" and that isn't the issue. Kids with ADHD can't help themselves. When my son found out that he was suspended he was devastated. Why is the secretary judging my son? Does she have a degree in sociology? I'm pretty sure she just needs to sit there and take phone calls. My youngest will not be attending Lincoln school when he goes to school. My oldest son is the only one of my kids with adhd or any behavior issue and has been diagnosed by a doctor.Parent Review11y ago - Sterling High School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThere are very few teachers that care how well the students do. They have no resources to help kids that are struggling in their classes, other than the help from the teacher whenever they are available. The teachers have been mean to children that need extra time to finish a test or need help with homework. The response from most teachers is they are not trying. When they hair need help to understand. They tend to say inappropriate things to the children. For example complaining about working and not getting time off since they have to make up for snow days. Talking bad about other children in front of students. Making racial comments to the entire class about how hard a it is to be a specific race. The majority of the teachers favor the “popular kids” or “rich kids”.Parent Review6y ago
