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 hil
Posted by a parent on 11/4/2025My overall experience with this school is horrible. I am currently in the process of removing my younger son from this school and finding one that will help more with his disabilities. I never thought I would be in this position as I am an advocate for public education, but I can't let this go any l
Posted by a parent on 5/17/2019We love Sundance. 3 of my children went here after a move and likes it much better than the others.
Posted by a parent on 10/12/2017I have 3 kids that have or do go to Sundance. Although there have been many changes, Sundance truly has teachers and Admin who really care about the students, their heart is in the job. Yes they may seem stressed on occasion, but they are office staff, TEACHERS, and PRINCIPALS who work very hard eve
Posted by a parent on 9/29/2017My kid(s) have had some great teachers here aside from the music teacher who insisted on teaching about god in music class, and some teachers who play favorites and some who just don't seem to really like jobs. But I'd say 80. Percent of the teachers are great. Just no one in administration. They ar

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAll of my children went to this school from kindergarten to 8th grade. In the early grades teachers were caring and supportive and so was the administration. In the jr high grades the staff and administrators became uncaring, non supportive and treated my children and myself as a burden whenever something happened regarding discipline. The principal was rude to me and showed a lack of concern and compassion for my family, my children and their success in school.Communication was non existent unless I initiated it and sadly we couldn’t wait to leave at the end of 8th grade. If you want your child supported in every aspect of life and feel a sense of belonging and support, this school misses the mark in jr high.Parent Review11mo ago - Ira A Murphy Elementary School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy step daughter has been going to this school for a while. All this time that she has been here was terrible for her. The vice principal at this school has been picking on my step daughter. I do not tolerate this behavior. I do not recommend Ira Murphy for anyone. The staff here is terrible. They never want to hear anyone out and make so many false accusations. If I could take my step daughter out of this school, I would. She has been complaining to me about her school and the staff there. I absolutely do not want to see any other kid feeling this way. Seeing my step daughter looking miserable everyday after school makes my heart shatter and fills me with anger. This is a terrible school and no child should have to go through this.Parent Review1y ago - Peoria Elementary School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe 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.Parent Review1y ago - Copperwood School

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school will have your child signing contacts without parents consent and won’t tell parents until after the fact. I had to take my children out of this school and get a variance to put them into school elsewhere. I do not recommend this school. If I could give ZERO stars I would.Parent Review10mo ago - Oasis Elementary School
