This school is doing so many amazing things for students and the community at large, but I want to take a moment to specifically talk about Coach Lenny Krebs and the girls basketball program. I currently have a fifth grader who is just getting started with basketball, so you may wonder why I would be writing a review on the high school basketball program! I was shocked as well. This past year my daughter has participated in a girls 3-on-3 basketball clinic and a Travel Basketball program. Being new to the Warsaw program, we didn't know what to expect really...In both of these offerings, Coach Lenny Krebs and others from the High School Basketball program personally provide support and coaching to these students. This includes fifth grade through eight grade students throughout the school district. What an incredible investment into these future students. As a parent, I've attended observed several of these sessions and have been very impressed at the quality of coaching and support being offered. My daughter has drastically improved due to Coach Krebs and the other dedicated individuals. Thank you Warsaw High School for investing in the future students in your community, this is awesome to see, and we are so thankful for being able to participate!

I’m a student at Edgewood and I haven’t had a singular good experience. Teachers will lie to you. They say at the beginning of the year stuff along the lines of “You won’t have homework unless you don’t finish classwork,” though this is completely false. I have maybe had a week out of the entire school year where I have not had anything to do after school. I live on a very tight schedule and it’s usually very hard to fit in the 1-2 hours of homework every night while also getting 8+ hours of sleep (i’m getting a maximum of 7). A lot of teachers are extremely passive aggressive to students and also very hard to listen to because they are always yelling throughout all of their classes, regardless of whether their class is good or bad. They also recently took away students study hall period because we had too many missing assignments. Some students don’t have time after school, so how will missing assignments and grades improve when you are taking away the only time some students have to get work done? The school prioritizes memorization and grades and does not care about actual learning with students and focusing on their mental health. Everyone talks about “No students left behind” but the idea is basically gone. Teachers aren’t very aware of students knowledge in material. Staff also will talk about kids behind their backs and make rude remarks. They also seem to not care at all about bullying because there are fights happening every other day. Just a reminder to be careful choosing a school. Popularity doesn’t always matter when choosing one. To them it’s just a race to see who can be the top grade school.

Claypool Elementary is a wonderful school with a kind and caring staff. The students learn not only State curriculum but being a STEM school they also learn to grow and harvest all types of vegetation. It's a great school to be a part of.
