Oasis Elementary School

The principal Mrs. LoPresto and assistant principal Mrs. Mendez are a champion for the kids. Firm but fair and supportive of the students. The multiple years that my 2 students attended this school class sizes have been 27/1 and up to 34/1 in this last school year. The special education program is exceptional. I never had to fight to get an accommodation, rather they offered accommodations and solutions in IEP meetings. The classroom management was often problematic because of class size. There are some great teachers there who have great hearts and care for their students. Overall it’s a good school that’s just underfunded due to being a title one school.

My granddaughter went here for Kindergarten and first grade her teachers were awesome . The bus driver was awesome the staff was awesome in the office . Would recommend the schoool

This school use to be great. I have 3 kids, 2 went from start to finish, my 3rd is almost done and it can not come soon enough. The teachers struggle with support. There is no training for teachers in special education. The ladies in the front reception are great, but otherwise it's gone so down hill. There is no consequences from admin if you bully other kids. So much infact they will bully you personally as a parent. Sadly there isnt much around this area for schooling options so best of luck if you buy a house in the area. Peoria unified as a whole is a disaster.

My 5-year-old's been having problems since he started first grade my son told me the teacher put her hands on him and hurt him twice and yes there was bruises the first time I brought it up there was nothing done the second time I called the district which they retaliated against me and now they don't want nothing to do with me they said I need to get a notarized paper signed and stamped and now will only deal with my wife the school needs to be investigated it's only been 2 months and it's been the worst experience I've ever had dealing with a school and feeling that my son's safeties at risk so much more I could say about what we have been going through shaking my head corporate needs to investigate the school and these teachers and principal they do not care for these students or to help them

I am very disappointed in our experience with this school and ultimately decided it was no longer the right placement for my child.Despite having a 504 Plan, my child’s documented accommodations—including dietary needs and reminders to drink water—were not consistently followed. Academically, reading instruction occurred only twice per week, which led to significant delays and was especially concerning given the school’s small class size and private setting. There was a noticeable lack of individualized academic support.Supervision and school culture were also troubling. On multiple occasions, staff did not assist my child during drop-off. Inappropriate behavior and language among students went unaddressed, including name-calling from older students. A teacher’s response that this behavior “meant they loved her” was deeply concerning and unacceptable.Communication was inconsistent and often unclear. Progress reports were repeatedly delayed and, when finally received, contradicted prior conversations about my child’s academic struggles. Additionally, my child’s tutor identified academic deficiencies that had never been communicated by the school, and there were inconsistencies between staff regarding her progress.Overall, this experience showed a lack of accountability, communication, and appropriate support. Families should ask detailed questions about accommodations, academic intervention, and how student behavior is handled before enrolling.
