Mildred Perkins Elementary

Wow. What a horrible experience with this school. My daughters first school year and she wants to return to her old school. Too many bullies and politics. Neither principals call you back to discuss my concerns. Once you do complain they seem to single your child out and take it out on them.

I have a child with special needs who’s been transitioning into mainstream classes. The combination of his main teacher and his special education teacher have both been absolutely amazing. He’s is now going into 2nd grade spending the majority of his time in the mainstream class. So far the school has been delightful and appreciate the teachers and staff interaction with my son. They really have helped him thrive.

I think this school is the best I been in

TK thru Kinder are the most unenthusiastic and unhelpful teachers. They do not assist with shoe tying nor put on backpacks or jackets if students are struggling. In class volunteers aren’t allowed which I’m sure is for a reason. My student was not comfortable speaking up and when she did was met with my-way mentality from the teacher. They may teach the curriculum however it is not a fun nor loving environment which is crucial to kids in trust building, confidence building, and creating love for school the first 2 yrs!! Very sad and wouldn’t recommend.

There are a lot of parent/volunteer involvement. The teachers are excellent! The leadership is quite good! The school is not overcrowded. It sits outside of city limits like a small jewel. I’m very happy we found this place, and so are my children. It’s not too often children are excited to go to school— my kids tell me they love going to school! The school is small enough that everyone knows each other! I love it!!
