"There is a neighborhood park that offers off leash play hours. Dogs are well behaved and socialized that visit. This park also offers wonderful views, tennis, play equipment and rest rooms. It’s a great place for families with pets."

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe teachers and principal at this school are great, and really foster an environment of caring. If your student fits neatly in the bell-curve, you'll love it.Unfortunately, if your child is at either end of the learning spectrum (either with learning difficulties or gifted), it's an incredible challenge to get them supported. There seems to be little to no education on various learning disabilities for the teachers. When you're trying to find help for your student, you get gaslit from the school psychologist. We ended up paying for private testing and tutoring, which isn't an option for a lot of families. It breaks my heart to think of how many kids use fall through the cracks here.Parent Review4y ago14 Reviews - Garfield Elementary School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageLive close to this school and watch when the school closes for the day and see lots of people use the grounds for dog walking and do not pick up after their dogs excriment leading to unsanitary conditions. The school should have gates closed during off hours to prevent this. I have had many issues with my kids who are in kindergarten who have come home with pet to human illness that has required me to bring them to see the physician and required tapeworm medicine.Parent Review1y ago13 Reviews - Liberty Elementary School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOur daughter transferred to Liberty from another school, and she loves Liberty much better than her last school. The teachers and staff are all professional, friendly, and caring, and our daughter's reading and language skills have shot up almost immediately. The teachers challenge her more here. The kids have also all been very nice and she's made a lot of new friends quickly.Parent Review9y ago3 Reviews - White Pine Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy children have been at New Horizon on Boise Ave for about a year and a half now. They have a well structured school that teaches them so much. My children have learned so much that I would have never expected from a child care. Granted it is expensive and they do go through a lot of teachers at times. It is by far the best place I have taken my children to and would not take them anywhere else.Parent Review12y ago2 Reviews
