8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe have been extremely pleased with Lakeview Elementary. Two of our children attended there ... The youngest just finished 6th grade. Great teachers ... Committed professionals who make learning fun! A wonderful school community with very involved parents too. Really one of the best in MCCSC.Parent Review10y ago - Jackson Creek Middle School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe had a school dance and Two boys name of like Luis and Jose went around and touched girls inappropriately and unzipping their dresses, 5 girls were crying, assistant principal did nothing about it, there was this great kid named like Issac who had enough and hit one of the dudes. But he got suspended for 3 days while those two had no punishment. I was dealing with boys being weird around me and they also got away with it. In addition Issac was kicked out the dance before the two?? Teachers don’t really have the best ways of teaching and the way that they teach confuses me. The lunches are pre served and you can only get one entree now, kids can’t get up for water unless table is called, which can endanger them if they don’t get the sources they need. You aren’t allowed to get extras, which left me hungry throughout the day if the food is too little on certain days. But yeah I wouldn’t recommend this school because you will have to worry constantly about if you will feel safe here or be in the right hands.Other Review8mo ago
