Prescott Elementary 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.

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.

The staff at Marshall Elementary is always caring and goes above and beyond to ensure every student reaches there full potential.
