Great school & the teachers go above & beyond.
Posted by a parent on 1/2/2025I really think this school should do better with how they discipline and punish these children. I feel like they go overboard with their disciplinary. Some teachers overdo their part when it comes to work as well. I feel they don’t understand how much these kids go through and put work on their back
Posted by a student on 6/12/2024This school absolutely sucks, they serve expired food, one of the people that sits at my lunch table received a moldy orange. This school also has roaches. This school need a public health check.
Posted by a student on 5/20/2024I sent my child to this school and thought that it would be a better interment for her, but it wasn't my child constancy came home said kids were messing with her and I asked her did she tell anybody and she would say yes but the teaches would say nothing. So I guess when the child kept messing with
Posted by a parent on 2/1/2024Students and classmates misbehave, fight, talk back to teachers, and can't shut up! Some students show actual psychopathic behaviors and tendencies, but no one bats an eye. The teachers and administration aren't strict enough and aren't properly disciplining these children.

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI use to attend this school in the early 2000s. I was held back for my behavior and education. Now that I'm grown and have children myself i see where Fieler dropped the ball. Fieler can not handle children with a disability instead they will hold your child back. The school does not have the resources for children that suffer from behavioral issues. They definitely will suspend your child with no type of plan. They do not give children IEPs or anything. I would not recommend Merrillville School District to anyone.Other Review6mo ago - Homer Iddings Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThere is a high turn over rate in teachers the school show favoritism towards their children . Ever since Principle Megan V b the school has went down hill to the point that I decided to remove my children after 8 years They depend on public transportation and do not know how to communicate to parents let alone teach the children .
