As a student here, I think the school overall is okay, but theres a lot of bullying, and unless you reach out to someone, no one even notices it! Like Im aware its not their job to do that, but still they could be a little more observant! Like kids are just mean in general! 3/10 for the proplr. The school itself is a 6/10 though.

I Absalutely love Williams Bay Elementary School!! I am a student that has been going there for 5 years. All of the teachers that I have had in the previous years are so understanding and nice. There is a strict No bullying, and it works. If you are worried that your son or daughter won't find friends, your wrong. When you are the new kid at Williamsbay, people want to hang out with you, help you with your lunch tray, etc. I really don't know one person in my grade, 6th grade, that doesn't have at least one friend! Nor do I believe there are any TRUE enemy's. Please send your child here! You won't regret it!

I lived in this community for over 20 years. Some of the teachers are very good, and some should not be teaching. My oldest was college bound and took physics. When he got to college, he did not know what his college physics professors were talking about. Williams Bay does not teach math based physics- they teach physics the way it was in the 1950's and 60's. When I questioned the physics teacher why she wasn't teaching math based physics she said she was told not to because it was too difficult and no one would take it. This school does not prepare students for college. When tasked with doing a simple term paper in college, my son said he had never done a term paper ever in this school system. When I asked the administrators why they did not teach or require term papers/ research papers they had absolutely no answer. Once I showed them why this was so important, they went nuts with requiring written papers in every subject. I feel this school administrators are incompetent. If you want confirmation, look into the college graduation rate of their valedictorians- very few get past their 2nd year and drop out. They like to point to test scores, but I think this may be because they teach to the test rather than teach a subject completely. Truly talented teachers leave for other schools out of frustration with administrators and school board politics. My son said in hindsight he should have gone to Big Foot High School in nearby Walworth, Wi. or Lake Geneva's Badger High School for a much better (more challenging) high school experience.
