The treatment of children with special needs or other diverse differences is terrible. The staff do nothing to address concerns with bullying and misconduct among teachers.

As a current student, I do think ISMS is a good school. I think we are above other schools, not academically or athletically but when it comes to the people. Of course there are the problem kids, but there are in every school, and that needs to be taken in consideration. We have good sports programs and everybody can be included. The majority of the students and teachers are encouraging, to those students who would normally be bullied, we make them our friends and talk with them, rather than bullying. Some teachers do abuse their power in my opinion, which is unfair for the kids. I do believe some teachers need to become more affirmative, and not always nag at the students talking even if they are working at the same time. Teachers need to understand kids are socializing, that's a big part of growing up. I think we do need to incorporate more punishment towards the students who think it is funny to call diverse students, such as myself, slurs or names due to the color of their skin or race. It is unfair to us, and teachers and administration should be more active with punishing these students. It is ridiculous to allow this behavior, especially in 2022. One thing is that for our students with special needs, we have a buddy program for them which I think really improves the emotions out there and helps them as a person. I think ISMS overall is a good school, but it could use some changes.

My children have been here for 6 years now and we absolutely love it here! Principal, teachers, & staff are wonderful and very caring of all students. We instantly felt how laid back & grounded everyone is here. We appreciate the balance of both educational & social development that our children are receiving at Coesse. There are lots of opportunities for parent involvement. We have been very pleased with how different situations involving our children have been handled by the staff.
