George Washington Middle School

My child has attended this school for four years. It is an amazing school filled with teachers and staff who truly care about my child and all the children in the school. This school is often looked down on or overlooked by parents as well as other district employees because it is a "low income" school. Despite this, Mr. Glaser leads an amazing team that is dedicated to meeting students and families where they are, forming strong connections, and doing all they can to promote success for students and families alike. They regularly go above and beyond expectations to meet the needs of those they serve. I am very please with my child's experience at Audubon and would recommend it to anyone I know.

My two children went to Bryant. Blue Ribbon award winning school! It is a community of thoughtful caring professionals. They encourage community strength and character building in addition to the educational program. They have a wonderful Talented and Gifted program! The parents are involved in and out of the classrooms.

We and our daughter have nothing but great things to say about this school. The teachers put in extra effort and time, the principal knows every child's name, and they continue to have worthwhile activities and clubs that enrich students' lives. It is a small but diverse school in a great neighborhood, which is hard to come by.

Irving has a great history but the current regime leaves a lot to be desired... The office staff is exceptionally rude...The principal is micromanaging and delusional about what goes on in her school...she is two faced and will smile and nod to you while she is making terrible decisions that detract from and diminish the quality of education at Irving...She and her office staff are rude, impatient, condescending, unaccommodating. She is not in keeping with the traditional high standards of Irving. Most of the staff with strong integrity has retired or left and the remaining staff are kept silent about incidents and conditions and odd behavior by fear of losing their jobs...she has shut out parents to maintain the strained stranglehold she has on the school as any self respecting average citizen would observe the absurdities of her rule and she would be undone...And indeed many many parents have observed these actions and commented. It is hard to believe she has not been censured. There must be something wrong at the level above her...in the management of Dubuque's elementary principals to allow her to continue and to make recent terrible decisions like switching the "good"/successful principals out of the schools where they were successful and leaving the Meehans where they are...it all has an air of Machiavellian decision making to instill fear to keep control and dismantle the strong neighborhood cultures at the more successful schools...

In our experience, Lincoln, is an excellent school. The teachers are very welcoming and engaging with the kids. Communication to the parents is great. My kids love to go to school! I feel as though they learn so much and definitely get the extra help if and when it is needed.

I love Prescott! When my younger daughter graduated to middle school last year I was sad I wouldn't be a "Prescott Parent" anymore! The staff and faculty have always done their best to make sure every student has the best possible education, no matter where they fall on the curve and what their needs may be. Discipline issues are handled quickly and appropriately. Curriculum is creative, engaging, and most importantly, effective.
