Lincoln Elementary School

Don't waste your time. They do not care and will talk about your child. They also do not go by privacy guidelines.

The teachers at this school go above and beyond for the kids that come into this building. This school has a high amount of emotional trauma that the students bring in with their backgrounds and the teachers make amazing growth with all of them.

My son attended Westwood this year. His teacher went above and beyond to meet his academic needs. He immediately made friends and felt connected to staff. Prior to Westwood he was struggling academically. After a year at this school he was on grade level in every subject and had straight A's!

I’ve had two children attend Eisenhower Elementary from kindergarten through fifth grade, and both have continued to be successful students in the district. Over the years, we have worked with around 10 teachers and instructors, and I have had no significant concerns with any of them. They are well trained, dedicated to their work, and each brings individual strengths to the classroom.I especially appreciate that the principal and administration allow teachers the flexibility to use those strengths to create successful learning environments. The principal is a classy, professional leader whose top priority is the students, with a clear focus on strong instruction and appropriate discipline.At one point, one of my children had some minor discipline concerns. Even then, the intervention team and teachers remained supportive and encouraging. They developed a plan that was specific, realistic, and measurable, and it helped address the issue successfully.I know some parents have mentioned communication challenges, but that has not been our experience. We have found communication with the school to be open, honest, timely, and constructive.Overall, Eisenhower Elementary gave my children a strong academic and social foundation, and I’m grateful for the role the school has played in their growth and success.

Good school my child is passing to next grade.

I've had kids go there with the old principal and with the new principal. The new principal by far is wonderful. She interacts with all of the kids. It being such a small school makes it possible for all staff to know all kids in all grades not just who's in their class. I think the school is doing fantastic things especially for the kids who don't do well in big group settings. I did have some concern with the fifth grade teacher a couple of years ago. She didn't seem to address conflicts accurately between students and her class. My daughter told me that this teacher would tell students that they had body odor. My special needs son loves it there and is always happy and excited to go. As far as the special needs program my opinion isn't based on the school individually because those staff members go to all of the schools. But the whole process of evaluating and getting these extra services for these kids that need it is too lengthy. Also the the process and evaluating for the gifted program seems too particular. My oldest tested two times but didn't qualify because his maturity level was low even though he tested amazing in the academic parts. I assumed that the gifted program was for gifted children not well-behaved mature children. I feel like my son didn't benefit to everything that should have been offered to him based on his comprehension in the subjects I'm those grade levels.

My children went to this school a few months during a very stressful life situation our family was going through and I was not impressed at all. Bullying, little help from teachers, no compassion. Might as well be a zoo they let out of control kids do whatever they want to include verbally attacking staff. I knew the prior principle whom would've never let things get this bad and out of control.
