Liberty High School

Wickham is a great school. Great Iowa Assessment scores across all grades, all averages are above 95%. Wickham has the best chess club in the area, its team won many 1st and 2nd place trophies.

We LOVE this school. Excellent principal and experienced, enthusiastic, and committed teachers. We have an outstanding Family Resource worker and an exceptional counselor. Even our office and support staff are wonderful. We are so glad that this is our neighborhood school.

Teachers are amazing and they really love their job! The best school in the area. Go Rockets!!

Montessori Children Garden has been nothing but amazing for my son he loves it so much he loves to go back. It is so easy to talk any of the teacher and directors.

MSIC is an incredible school filled with highly qualified staff. They put the students first and work with passion to guide each child to meet his/her individual goals.

It is the best decision my wife and I have made regarding our children’s education

I went here from kindergarten to 5th grade, and even as a current high schooler, this is my favorite school I’ve ever attended. I always thought that the teachers were kind to all students, and gave everyone the same opportunities. The only issue I had with this school is how the staff members handled some students, specifically students with behavior issues. There were numerous times when my class would be disrupted, because a student with a behavior issue got out of control. Often times, we would even have to clear the classroom. If these incidents were handled well, I wouldn’t have an issue with it, as I know the behavior of some students does not reflect on the quality of the school. However, when one of these incidents would happen, the teachers would do nothing besides keep other students out of the way. For example, I have a very vivid memory of someone in my 4th grade class getting out of control, and throwing chairs around in the “pod” area. Meanwhile, the principal and another teacher were doing nothing; just standing there, drinking their coffee. Overall, loved my experience going to Garner Elementary was great, and I still have very good memories of the school.
