Read what parents are saying about Sullivan Elementary SchoolWe have been very happy at Sullivan. It's nothing fancy, but I believe it is meeting the needs of its students and providing a safe place for them to learn and thrive. The population of the school is largely immigrant and lower income families, with a higher percentage of homeless and highly mobile students than most nearby schools. I don't believe the test scores are reflective of student experience because the population faces many challenges to traditional measures of achievement. My white middle class daughter is making friends with people she may never have otherwise met and is doing well academically.
Posted by a parent on 3/10/2020This school have bullying issue and they don't have any plans of how to prevent from happening. no actions what so ever. they say we have zero tolerance for bullying but at the same time nothing is being done to stop the bullying.

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe've become less satisfied over time with Seward, and are leaving this year. The classes are big, and behavior is an issue. Teachers are mixed - some truly wonderful - but they seem stressed and overwhelmed trying to implement all the many district mandates and remain true to Montessori. There is little written feedback for bigger projects, so it's hard to know exactly where your child needs to improve, and more attention to differentiation at the top end is definately needed. In addition, recess is laughably short, and kids do not get enough movement in their day. The biggest strengths of this school is its caring support staff, many good teachers, and closeknit parent community. The building is horrible, but I believe a significant addition is in the works.Parent Review9y ago - Anishinabe Academy

1/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating Average1/10. The students at this school are wonderful and deserve the best, and they have been given the worst due to the incompetent Principal and the District's lack of caring about what goes on here (they have been notified several times). I would not suggest teachers take a job here or parents enroll their student here until Laura Sullivan is no longer principal.Teacher Review3y ago - Aurora Charter School

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am not sure if I want my child to go to this school. Last year, I tried calling and calling because I wanted to take a tour of the school to see if I wanted to enroll my child in Kindergarten. I left messages, no one called me back, and when I finally got a hold of them, they told me only the director could give me a tour and that someone would call me. No one did, but I dropped off an application anyways. After my child started at another school in the fall, then I got a call that there was an opening. I discussed the possibility of my child attending the following year because I didn't want to change schools after she started, and now I am having the same problem getting a hold of someone again. I leave messages and no one calls me back. I really hate that, and it is a bad sign that the communication in this school is not very good.Parent Review9y ago - Minnehaha Academy Upper School

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageGood teachers. Student body does not reflect the character/ethos the school tries to convey. Dealt with racial bullying in middle/high school. Administration not supportive. Transferred to a different school. I would not recommend.Parent Review2y ago - Universal Academy Charter School
