This school needs a lot of work...structurally and staffing. Unfortunately I found the staff to lack of diversity and multi-culturism. They are stuck in the past. They use their prejudice and dislike to hand out bad grades. They pull the grades from no where. Thank God they replaced some of the

She cleaned up a filthy mess left by the other teacher. I hope they get a new school for my children...it is about to fall down! Read less

As a family not from this area, I was surprised that a small community could be so selective in the treatment of the students. The administration seems educated but really doesn't have a clue in what's best for the child. Discipline is almost nonexistence where problems go uncorrected. There are some
... Read more great teachers but my son has special educational needs that were not met. Grades seemed made up because no one could show me anything! When you give a child A's and B's but then he fails the 'test' - something is not right. There are so many new teachers that seem to have no guidance and do not teach to the caliber they should. Was much better 5 years ago when we moved here. Read less

My daughter began kindergarten this year at Boone Trail. I was nervous at first because I did not know her teacher. Her teacher, Mrs. Brandy Coker, is fantastic. She made my daughter feel right at home and my child loves her and can't wait to go to school each day. Mrs. Coker is familiar with my child's

She keeps the parents informed of their child's progress and needs too. I am pleased and impressed with my daughter's teacher and the assistant. I appreciate what Mrs. Coker is doing and would suggest her to any parent who has a kindergarten student coming into school. Read less

I find this school to not be up to standard. The principal and counselor do not listen nor care what the parents have to say. Neither do they want the input of parents (except the ones with deep pocket books). They are opionated and not totally concerned with students.

This is the worst school I had ever heard about.I cannot wait until my children are out of there. The teacher and staff are rude and judge the kids by their last names. Is that fair to the students who are not from around Mamers? It is not fair to judge them and treat them so unfairly.
