Whitewater Middle School

I hate this school, most employees are very rude and don't even get me started on the bus drivers, they kicked kids off the bus for no reason, they think that just because they see or hear something wrong they assume that it was a random kid and kick them off the bus. I do NOT recommend this school.

My kid went here for 2 years and what a mistake it was. He never wanted to talk about school and didn’t seem learn a whole lot. Nice teachers and admins but it didn’t connect with my kid. 1.5 months in a new school and he’s loving it, started speaking Spanish and his reading and math are on point now. And he doesn’t stop talking about all the things they learn.

I cannot say enough wonderful things Paw Creek Elementary School. From the very beginning, we have been impressed with the quality of learning and teaching that takes place each day. The teachers go above and beyond to make sure lessons are engaging, challenging, and tailored to each child’s needs, which has helped my son grow both academically and personally.One of the things I appreciate most is the school’s commitment to social-emotional support. The staff truly understands that children thrive when they feel seen, heard, encouraged, and cared for, and they put just as much emphasis on character development and emotional well-being as they do on academics.The school also does a fantastic job with family engagement. Parents are kept well-informed and encouraged to take part in activities, events, and decision-making. It truly feels like a partnership between home and school, and that connection makes a world of difference for the students.Another area where the school shines is safety. I feel confident every day sending my son, knowing that the staff prioritizes student safety and has strong measures in place to ensure a secure, welcoming environment.Overall, Paw Creek has created a nurturing, challenging, and supportive community where children can learn, grow, and feel safe. We are so grateful to be part of it!The Glaze Family

I would highly recommend this school. Teachers are very caring and always trying to challenge students academically.

I have been impressed with the school and student culture improvements/changes that have been made and the way, as a parent, I can relate to as well as understand the complexity of public education in my community. It takes a village is becoming a part of what has made this school exceptional since 2008, making me internally wonder what this community had before River Oaks Academy was built and what will public education look like as the nearby police station finishes construction and traffic increases and population growth along with residential developments and lesser parks/green space evolves.
