Williwaw Elementary School

We moved to the Airport Heights neighborhood with an open mind about the local neighborhood school. At first the school principal, teachers, and PTA seemed involved and caring. THere are a few caring teachers that are involved and making the best at teaching there. Then we experienced a horrible teacher that allowed students to bully kids in the classroom. This teacher's classroom management style was allowing other kids to bully kids that wer out of line, single kids out and turn the classroom on these kids. It was an horribe learning environment for our child. We reached out the teacher and school principal - neither was willing to help. I can see why parents are leaving this school for charter and choice school options in the district. We are glad we made the move to other schooling options. Now our child is thriving in school and loving it again. Be ware and be involoved if you do send your kids here. There are a teachers that allow and promote bullying at this school. The adminstrative staff will look the other way whiel it happens.

Ok but needs a lot of improvements…. Better assignments for actual grade level, more organized, better solutions from staff for parents questions…,

Have a child there in 3rd grade, teachers are wonderful and very helpful

This school will let your child get bullied and will not inform the parents of the child who’s getting bullied They let rude little boys run around and push, hit and tell other students they will kill their parents and do nothing about it.

Our oldest spent 2 years attending this school. Both years with teachers who seemed less the interested in providing much of a learning environment for the students. The school does not keep parents informed of upcoming events or activities and is regularly giving one day notices to the parents. The school has a very diverse population which is great for the kids on being exposed to other cultures but also leads to alot if bullying if your child is not from those backgrounds. The school itself facilty wise is always extremely dirty (play ground covered in trash and regularly find items used for smoking or injecting drugs on the school grounds) Little to no activities for students to get involved in and teachers seem lack luster.
