I'm about to ruffle some feathers. Yet I personally don't care. I'm disappointed due to the fact. That this schedule came highly recommended. From various parents and adults overall. My child started this school. Brand spanking new but the principal. At my daughters previous school. Bad mouth me to
Posted by a parent on 10/15/2025Horrible. The resource teacher who was teaching my neice pulled her aside and her that “ she has one more time or she will get a spanking.” Right in front of another teacher. I’m trying to get my niece out of here. I told the principal and teacher that this child has trauma, and she is a foster chil
Posted by a parent on 7/4/2018Worst school and staff. They don't care about the students, no compassion. Teacher and office staff are rude. Teacher needs to change careers because compassion for the kids is gone. Teacher says "shut-up" instead of "quiet". I have never told my child to shut up. I have said quiet because I love my
Posted by a parent on 9/22/2017My children have had the best experience in this school specially this year 15-16.They love their teachers and I know that their love for the students is real, how they go the extra mile to see their students achieve their academic goals is amaizing! I just want to thank all of the staff.
Posted by a parent on 1/13/2016I do not care to much about this school at all .I am a stay home mom and very much involved with my kids i want them to be all that they can be with gods well .This school cares more about discipling the kids and yes i do understand but they focuses more on discipline then whats the point

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAbsolutely horrible school. Within a week of enrollment, I'd already had so many issues with administration I went ahead and enrolled her in another school for the following year. As soon as I heard they had an open spot for the remainder of the year, I pulled her out.The issues:Told the school she would have a watch to text and call me and her father, only when she sent me an audio clip of a teacher yelling at her and I took it to the principal did they have a problem with it-- because they realize they are now being held accountable.During enrollment, I wasn't pleased to hear that because of Covid, parents aren't allowed entry for pretty much any reason. I later found out (when I finally got in to go to a PTA meeting), that all these parents in the PTA are on campus all the time volunteering. When leaving from that meeting, I found my daughter not playing at recess but hiding in a corner because she was cold. Why wasn't there a teacher helping her? I would visit and wave to her at recess some days and the teachers always side eyed me and made me feel terrible for coming at my daughter's request bc she didn't like being in school. Once while watching recess, I saw a maybe 5 yr old screaming and crying being dragged by two grown adults. I was in such shock, I still feel like I hallucinated it.During drop off, if you get there right at 7:30, the teachers will be looking you in the eye, watching your kid get out and lock the gate so you have to take the kid into the office to get into school. The playground is mainly unshaded and sand. Please spare yourself and child of this school and go somewhere else. There are amazing charter and select schools nearby with much better staff, facilities, and policies.Parent Review4y ago - Washington Elementary School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy child is a student in the Spark program. Yes, this is the only Tempe school with this special education program. However, that does not excuse the teachers and staff for their breakdown in thorough communication. I have had to reach out myself every quarter to receive updates as the school failed to do so themselves.Parent Review1mo ago - Adobe Montessori School
