Calvin A. Hunsinger School

It’s a great school were the teacher are 200% there for there students!!’

I loved that my child experienced multiple forms of the arts, especially that he had opportunity to take a dance class. Also the PE teacher there really show she cares.

Pros: Diversity within the school. It didn't feel cliquish and the staff made everyone feel welcome. Great office support staff! Families were encouraged to participate in field trips/Chapel. For the most part, my kids enjoyed their classmates/socially enjoyed the activities.Cons: Behaviors were a constant challenge in the classroom. The teacher was visibly stressed/frustrated at the end of the day. When needing additional assistance with a short term situation, the teacher was not approachable, caring and it felt like we were an inconvenience. My kids were not academically challenged and bored with the curriculum. I'm glad we didn't return because I found a more challenging school that stimulates their desire to learn.

This is a great group of people. They really care about the kids and stick around for a long time. The kids get individual programs and go at their own pace. Some of the graduates I have seen go on to some major colleges.

I really appreciate the structure of the school and the structure it gives the children this day and age.

My kids have been attending Washburn for two years now and they are both thriving in their studies. Washburn's individual approach to education means no child has to wait for others to catch up to them before moving ahead, nor do they feel rushed to catch up if they're not grasping a subject quickly. Due to this, my son is now a full grade ahead of his public school peers! In addition, all students are able to fully apply and use the data they have learned, which is a rare quality in education these days.
