Issac Monfort Elementary School

I don't like this school. The people here are so mean.

2 years with a student there. both years our son has been bullied by different kids each year. nothing gets done to protect or help our son but the school does make sure to protect and let the bullies keep being. our sons friends are trying to change schools due to this issue. last year it got to the point our son wouldn’t eat unless it was fruit or water at 7 years old from teasing from one student. this year a new student is pushing/dragging/beating on him and his friends and the only action taken was to change bullies seat to which he was moved back next to our son 2 weeks later.sadly it feels like Switizer is a safe haven for bullies not students

I do remember the years that Wiley was thriving as stated by others. Today’s Wiley is much different. Yes, there are still some outstanding educators, but sadly Candace, the principal, has absolutely no business working with children, especially those with different learning needs and styles despite diagnoses. The growing diversity across UCS and the differentiation required is NOT being addressed by the current principal and some educators. They speak a good game to cover their behinds, but they have no grasp of reality and act as if they are still in the 1950s. If your child is a robot, then this school is for you. If your child and you live in the real world, you might want to think twice.

DONT send your kids to this school the experience my child has had is heart breaking we will never be returning

All and all a terrible school. Do not send your kids here terrible teachers and learning supplies, it is a dirt cheap school and since it is next to cheap apartments a lot of Hispanic kids are coming in every year and there is not enough room for all these kids to get the learning they deserve since they are constantly being put aside for the new kids coming in not knowing how to speak the best English.

Both of our kids have attended Peace Lutheran (2007 to present). Our daughter is now at Lutheran High North and had no problems with the level of education she received at Peace. She is taking college prep courses at North and even serves as a teacher's assistant. The education received by our kids is excellent and teachers have been available for extra study before or after the school day. Older students are also available for tutoring. We are very happy to know that our children's education include a focus on Jesus Christ and Christianity. Chapel is every Wednesday. Peace also offers every student an opportunity to play sports such as basketball, track and field, or soccer. No student gets turned away from sports and it is an excellent experience. Also, parents can participate too whether it is running the scoreboard or assistant coach. There is great comradery among students in all and between grades. The school has regular Family event and nights. My wife and I are very satisfied with the education our kids receive at Peace Lutheran and it has been a great experience for our family. We would recommend Peace Lutheran to any family.
