This school preaches NO HATE but will not support your child when bullied by mean girls and their mothers. The staff only supports families who act like they are more privileged than you. Such a cold place and my daughter is now in therapy. Absolutely zero culture and they only cater to one niche. Truly disgusting place to send your kids.

I went to Ryan Elementary and the teachers were very nice, and the teachers taught very well, I enjoyed this school and also their system of running things was really well.

My son is a 4th grader at Sanchez Elementary and has attended since kindergarten. Every year his teachers have worked to ensure that students at every level are receiving the attention they need, and in addition to the GT program he is grouped with similarly paced classmates for reading and math groups to make sure they continue to be challenged. It feels as if very person in the building at Sanchez is there because they love what they do, and it feels like a safe and nurturing space. We did have a problem this year with bullying, and the swift action and continued follow up from the teachers, counselors, and principal was reassuring and effective. We live in the north part of Lafayette and were initially confused about our neighborhood school being farther than others closer to our house, but we love that he can ride the bus and has gotten to be friends with so many more kids in our neighborhood.

I have been apart of this school for 30+ years! Going to this school as a child and now sending my two older children here have been a dream. We love the teachers here. You also get friendships, family and faith. Having support of eachother has been very comforting and a safe environment. My kids love this school and can't wait for the next day to come!! We a small school with big hearts

We love Meadowlark! The school is project-based learning centric, which was new for us, but has been very enjoyable for my 3rd grader. In our experience after almost 2 years at the school, we have felt our son is learning a lot, enjoying his teachers and classes, and having great experiences with his classmates. They do a great job putting kids in cohorts for their skill levels. For example, our son is in advanced math, which he loves. We were initially concerned about the K-8 with bigger kids at the school, but they have the kids in grade “pods” (ex: 3rd and 4th spend time together) and there’s not a lot of overlap otherwise. The principal and APs are very engaged, the school communications are excellent, and the parent engagement opportunities are plentiful. We also use their before and after school program (SAC) and absolutely love it. The SAC program coordinators are excellent. The school itself is also modern and beautiful. We couldn’t ask for more! Our son is proud to be a Mav!
