3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageA big fat ZERO!!! I have Never been more disappointed in a district than I am now since my son started at Kennedy. We have a daughter who had to change districts altogether due to the bullying and plummet in her grades after going to Kennedy 12 years ago. We hoped that, by now, this would have gotten better. Nope!!! It's sucks and I Highly recommend that you don't let your kids go to Kennedy H.S., Bloomington, MNParent Review6y ago - Oak Grove Middle School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating Averagemy son went here for a year and a half, and we took him out. All the schools students are extremely rude and the teachers do not care. There is a FACS teacher that is especially rude and doesn't grade anyone's work. DO BETTER BLOOMINGTON!Parent Review1y ago - Washburn Elementary School
- PK-5
- Public
- 706 Students
4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageDon't be fooled by these ratings that are primarily based on test scores. Washburn is a solid elementary school with a ton of supportive services for kids. Our child spent two years in a southwest Minneapolis elementary school and got far less support and has made far more progress at Washburn due to the small class sizes and huge range of supportive services. There are a number of demographic and socioeconomic reasons test scores here are lower than some other west Bloomington schools, but it's not because this is not an excellent school and not because students don't get a great education.Parent Review8y ago
