Read what parents are saying about W J Zahnow Elementary SchoolI was nervous moving to a small town, as everyone knows everyone and wondered if this would reflect as a hindrance for my oldest in Kinder. When they started school, they were immediately welcomed, and the last 2 years have been phenomenal. Teachers have been transparent in what they teach, what children may need assistance with, and the plan to get them where they need to be. My child has truly excelled here! Definitely recommend, especially families of young ones.
Posted by a parent on 4/3/2024Zahnow exceeded my expectations and turned my daughter in to a book worm. She hated reading but once she got a little extra help at school and more practice at home she left 1st grade almost at a 3rd grade reading level. Teachers and the rest of the staff is just simply amazing and they really do care about the children. My daughter cried the last day of school and didn’t want to leave her teacher. Thanks to zahnow staff my daughter loves to learn and even with summer here she still has me helping her with all the subjects to keep her mind sharp for 2nd grade.
Posted by a parent on 6/22/2023Zahnow has been wonderful overall. We have not met or heard from other parents about a single Kindergarten teacher who wasn't adored both by students and parents alike. We expect the same going into first grade. Administration is professional and helpful and the nurse is a rockstar. Coming from out of state, we used Great Schools as a compass for where to relocate and we couldn't be happier.
Posted by a parent on 7/20/2015I have two children at this school. It is very small and cramped. The teachers are horrible to the children. I have had many sleepless nights over sending my kids here. My child just informed me that she was vomited on today and I was never notified. Not even a courtesy note. If you are on the fence about sending your child to this school, heed my warning.
