GreatSchools Rating
Parent Rating Average
The principal, Kate Stanton is the worst principal I've been around. My daughter was falsely accused of something minor that she had no part or knowledge of. Instead of contacting a parent, Stanton interrogated and threatened my child to elicit a false confession. After my child came home crying, I contacted Stanton and I was given an audible "huff" over the phone and a refusal to listen or give any information. She flat out lied about having evidence while interrogating my child. She is the worst! That being said, the teachers are fantastic. Luckily, iowa law changed which allows the teachers to report to the parents, as they previously only reported to Stanton. Other than her, the district is great!
