John W Bonner Elementary School

Lummis Elementary school is a place where students are provided with experiences to enrich their minds, social skills and learn to be outstanding citizens in the community. Students are surrounded by faculty who demonstrate exceptional dedication to their profession. Community outreach experiences provide Lummis Lasers with an opportunity to look past themselves and find joy in caring for others. The PTA is a wonderful bridge between school and home- always organizing activities to engage families in their students education. The administration is passionate about what’s best for kids. They set high expectations for behavior, which has unfortunately become lax in other schools. This allows for maximized learning time with minimized interruptions. If you are looking for a place to be an equal partner in your child’s education and part of a community with a shared focus on creating life long learners, Lummis is the place for you.

Everyone at this school is wonderful—teachers, aides, and administrators—with the glaring exception of the office staff. They are consistently unfriendly, dismissive, and unhelpful. I’ve spoken with other parents who’ve had the exact same experience, so it’s not just me. It’s baffling that the very people who serve as the first impression of the school cannot manage basic courtesy or professionalism. A welcoming front office should reflect the warmth and excellence of the rest of the school, but instead, it’s an ongoing source of frustration and disappointment. I wish Mr. Hudzick would replace them.

Such an amazing school. We moved from California and the school has helped our 2nd grader flourish.
