This is a wonderful school. I know there has been talk of closing a school in this district and maybe dismantling the Upper Elementary. I sure hope not. It is a really great school for 5th and 6th graders and is a good transition to the Junior High. I love this school. Not very many districts have a 5th and 6th grade building and we are lucky to have it. I don't want my children going to a 6th grade at a Junior High.

Neither one of my children have graduated from this school, I recently remove my 18 year old son and will continue his education at home, he was getting no where with this school and they continued to give little to no help. My daughter has since been diagnosed as being in the Autism spectrum, and we will have to seek help for her elsewhere as well. Not to mention both took drivers ed which is very expensive and yet we’re only taken driving with instructor once each. Then told they would pick up the next term but never did. The ladies in the office were rude to deal with on phone. Principal talked down to me. I just dislike this school very much. My children attended school in El Paso, IL, and also many years in a Terre Haute In. Schools and this is by far worse I have had to deal with.

The PE/Health Teacher favorites her volleyball girls and treats all other students poorly.

The staff here is some of the most dedicated staff of teachers and principals I have ever known. The school itself consists of a small amount of children which I feel is one of the main reasons why this school excels at what it does. The classrooms are generally around 15 students each (give or take a few), and the grades are taught by one teacher each. I really wish there was a 4.5 rating and as much as I love this school, there are problems with it that goes beyond the staff's dedication with their children. That being the overall condition of the school. It is an older building which has seen it's share of care and love, but the age is evident. I do not feel this is at any way the fault of the staff, but of the utter lack of funding. The PTO at this school has a set of dedicated teachers at the helm. The Principal attends every meeting, and all parents are encouraged to come and attend. However, the involvement of parents/guardians is very small. The PTO is active and very dedicated to providing children attending every advantage it can afford to provide. I am very happy to have my children in this school. It truly is a gem in the rough.
