My children seem to be doing very well overall, on their report cards and their test scores. I feel the teachers could give parents more updates throughout the year, aside from the 2 mandatory parent teacher conferences, in regards to "what we can work more on at home" or areas that need more focus.

I have had my children at this school for K-6th. It now is not a “ Friendly “ school. Extremely pretentious students and parents. PTO pushy about constant ways to make money. A lot of Bingo nights, Ect. Across the field is the Jr High school, you will have a lot of issues with the Jr High students if your children walk home from school, and neither schools care to address this problem. My children tell me that they do not feel safe at this school because the principal-vice principal are not affective in controlling the bully issue.

DISBELIEF:I've had several kids go through Trail Wind Elementary School, and every year has been amazing UNTIL this year. While I believe the new principle has good intentions a pattern of confrontation has developed. Instead of deescalating situations, Beverly Boyd intensifies negative interactions instead of capitalizing on learning opportunities. I am generally a fan of teachers who work their way up the ranks into leadership positions, however NOT in this case.

This is the best school we've ever had our 5 daughters attend. I've read some of the reviews already posted here on this site and I'd like to say this school is not "snotty" I believe as long as you are apart of your child's education/school.... You'll be extremely satisfied with this school and have nothing but positive experiences at this great school. Mrs. Taylor (kindergarten teacher) is my absolute favorite and her heart is made of gold!!! Sarah

This school is small compared to what I grew up in. The teachers are excellent. The teacher to student ratio is great! Their ethics surpass most other schools. They continue to use playing and recess for social interaction learning! Thank you Trail Wind for being an amazing place for my children to get their education! Parents do need to get more involved, it seems the biggest complaint from teachers is the lack of parent interest.
