My reasons for my rating are very simple and clear. I am a full time running start student and due to COVID I never got the chance to interact with this building or with the staff. Today, I went into the building for the first time and my first interaction was with the front desk lady. She was neither welcoming or helpful. I was being very polite and the questions I asked where not difficult. She seemed very irritated and aggravated that I was even there. Don't get a job that involves helping if you don't want to. On the other hand the counseling office helped me more than she ever could, and my questions weren't even related to counseling. You want a welcoming "JAG nation" then fix your staff.

As a concerned parent, I feel compelled to share my experience at Edgerton Elementary. While the school boasts a promising educational environment, I have noticed some troubling aspects that cannot be ignored.One significant issue is the perceived neglect of students by certain teachers. It seems that some educators fail to provide the necessary attention and support to their students, which can be detrimental to their academic and emotional growth.Additionally, my Middle Eastern child faced distressing incidents due to his dietary restrictions. Students made fun of him for not being able to eat pork, highlighting a lack of understanding and empathy among the student body. The school should actively promote diversity and inclusivity, creating an environment where every child feels accepted and respected.Regrettably, I have also observed a lack of action when it comes to addressing bullying incidents. Some students openly use racial slurs, such as the N-word, without facing appropriate consequences. This inaction sends a message that such behavior is permissible, which is deeply concerning and unacceptable.Furthermore, it is disconcerting to learn that some teachers hold very conservative opinions outside of school. While everyone is entitled to their beliefs, it is essential that these opinions do not influence their teaching or the way they treat students of different backgrounds or beliefs.In conclusion, Edgerton Elementary has room for improvement in fostering a more nurturing and inclusive environment. Teachers must actively engage with students and intervene in bullying situations promptly. The school administration should also take decisive action to address instances of racial insensitivity and ensure a safe and respectful atmosphere for all students. Collaboration between the school, parents, and the community can lead to positive changes that benefit every child's educational journey.

GV does absolutely nothing about the increasing amount of bullying that occurs within their school. They expect a child to learn in an atmosphere with no control or boundaries. Failure to transfer accountability to the parent(s) for their child’s unacceptable behavior, and institute disciplinary actions on the one behaving badly, this administration is directly complicit in allowing children to be subjected to unspeakable bullying.Based on the most recent survey results, the administration has knowledge that GV is not a safe environment. Their willful neglect to address the bullying and safety concerns borders on reckless endangerment.
