Posted by a parent on 1/4/2026Honestly I am very concerned with the lack of importance given in regards to bullying! I was there to report physical bullying against my daughter with videos showing proof of kids attacking her inside the school as well as the school bus. As I was there, another parent arrived to report physical bu

Posted by a parent on 6/3/2022I made originally made an opinion about GWMS on a some miscommunication. After meeting with some of the staff, I couldn't have been more wrong. My advice to aparent is to be involved in your child's school. If you can't, then ask many questions and get the most information that you can help your chi
Posted by a parent on 2/20/2018I graduated from this school last year and I had a great experience overall. I didn't particularly enjoy going to school in sixth grade but it gets better every year. The teacher are helpful and supportive along with the staff and it is overall a great school.

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe absolutely love Ames! You can tell the teachers and staff really care about their job. I feel like they go above and beyond to address issues with students before they become potentially bigger issues in the future. Our kids are always excited to go to school. It seems like a lot of the parents are very involved with the school, which is nice to see. I’m sorry to read that another parent had a bad experience with bullying. Everything I’ve seen, the administration and teachers seem to take things very seriously and address them early on. We love the themed days, spirit wear days and the entire school reading the same book at the same time. It really creates a sense of community among the different grades. The teachers deserve so much credit. It’s not easy these days and they are truly wonderful at this school!Parent Review2y ago - Blythe Park Elementary School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe older review is really sad! I'm so sorry they had a negative experience at Blythe Park. My kids have been going here for the past few years, and we all really love this school. I don't believe the current principal was around in 2014, but the current one, Mrs. Gorman, is great. She's responsive to issues, from my experience. I've never heard adults gossiping about kids. Personally, I don't find the parents cliquish. Over the past six years or so, Riverside has really turned over its population, meaning there are a *lot* of new families with young children. I do think that has changed some of the dynamics the previous reviewer experienced. The teachers here are lovely, and were excellent through the pandemic. This is a small gem of a school, and I feel very lucky that my kids are able to go here.Parent Review3y ago - Central Elementary School
