Inter-American Elementary Magnet School

This school is not recommended. Don't risk your child growth and development by taking them to this school. Horrible

I’m a parent of a 7th grader and a 4th grader at Walt Disney Magnet School and we’ve had such a great experience here! The school really goes above and beyond to make sure students are safe and cared for. I've read the previous review about safety, we've had a very different experience. The administration team communicates any incidents that arise immediately and have been very transparent. Communication with families is always clear. I truly feel comfortable every day knowing my kids are in good hands.The academics are excellent, challenging but very supportive. My 7th grader has been pushed to think critically and take ownership of her learning, while my 4th grader is building strong skills and a real love for reading and math. In 7th grade, my child participated in engaging activities such as a mock trial in reading class. The class dressed up as their assigned role and role played a trial. She also enjoys the hands on labs in science. My 4th grade son participated in a book buffet. He made a diorama and included a written response about the book he was reading. Parents were invited, it was really cool to see all of the finished projects. The teachers are amazing and really know how to keep students engaged. What I love most are all the fun, meaningful activities that make learning come alive. My daughter loves the drama club, which gives her a creative outlet and helps her build confidence. Recently they both participated in a move a thon. My son was excited to share how fun it was that they got assigned to walk with their buddy. The school pairs older students with younger ones to participate in fun activities. It really builds a sense of community across the grades.Overall, Walt Disney Magnet is a wonderful school, it’s safe, offers high academics, and really includes many fun activities for children and adults.. My kids are excited to go to school every day, and as a parent, that means everything!

I've got two students at Tubman (rising 3rd grader, rising 1st grader), and have been at the school since my oldest was in kindergarten. I have been so impressed with the quality of instruction, the community engagement, and the parent support. Test scores never tell the full story of a school - but I can also say that academically, my children are advancing very well each year, and are incredibly supported in doing so by their teachers. I also know that the whole the school saw incredible growth in our 2025 scores (some of which won't be published until fall 2025). On top of that, the school is wall to wall IB, and as such has a strong focus on social and emotional learning. I can see the growth in my kids emotionally and socially (equally if not more important to being a successful & well rounded adult who positively impacts the world). Tubman also has a fine arts focus - which means 2-3 times per year, I get to see my kids on stage, performing a dance or a skit - even if they choose not to participate in the school musical. The whole student body is so supportive of these performances, and the confidence building I've seen not just in my kids but in their classmates is really stark. The principal and admin staff work incredibly well with the teachers, and the parent community is engaged - with everyone working to support students in the best ways we can, and there is a strong bias across the board of collaboration and continued improvement. I had never heard of Tubman before I started investigating kindergarten options a few years ago - but I'm so glad to have landed here. It's a gem!

This school will do nothing to protect your child from being bullied. Nor do they make any effort to control the gang problem they have at this school. It has gotten so bad for my child that we had to stop sending them to school. Plus, we had to get lawyers and the police involved for the school to start looking into this issue. Do not send your child here for any reason.

We pulled our son out of a private school after bullying went unchecked and we placed him in Hamilton. It was the best decision we ever made. Not only is he excelling academically and socially but also emotionally. The school teaches (preventative) conflict resolution using proven coping tools like deep breathing and reflection forms. In fact, my 11-year old son now encourages me to use deep breathing:)

There aren’t enough words to express how awesome this school is. The teachers are amazing and I adore Dr. Marburger the principle and AP Ulmer. They are both present and engaged and great leases for the school. I am thrilled to be a Stallion parent.
