Windom School

This is an amazing school with dedicated staff who are committed to providing exceptional and rigorous academics while also supporting the social and emotional needs of my child. The school culture is very positive and the learning environment is focused and disrupted by negative student behaviors. Students are rewarded and celebrated weekly through Community Meetings. I highly recommend!

Don’t expect any parents, teachers, or administrators to validate, support, or advocate with you if your child struggles. The community of parents, teachers, and even Administration make it clear, you and your children are the problem. Teachers and administration also live in other cities and communities blind to how their harsh judgement and archaic policies negatively impact neighborhood family relationships, especially for families/kids of color and kids with disabilities.

Our family had an awful experience at this school. What we were told during our tour and initial visit did not match our actual experience. We did not feel welcome, there were little to no attempts to make us feel a part of a community as was promised during our initial meeting. Our child’s educational needs were not met and they came home feeling ashamed, as if there were doing something wrong. It was heartbreaking to see them not only struggle, but also see the impact it had on their self esteem.
