Posted by a parent on 3/2/2017I have had one son go to this school from K-6 and my second is in 2nd grade, having gone there for Pre-K until now.

Posted by a parent on 3/26/2013We have 3 children attending M.E.S. The teachers, leaders and administrative staff are all outstanding - both in professional ability, and in their genuine interest and warmth towards their students.
Posted by a parent on 8/19/2011The community is small, so not many choices as far as school. So my son had to go to this school. The first year was fine with no problemes at all. Little did i know that was about to change. Next two years weren't great at all and my nightmare started two years ago. My son has been bullied and

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAfter the teacher’s lecture my daughter would not always understand what it was the teacher was trying to say the first time around and would sometimes need it explained in a different way to help her get it. Her first grade teacher was great at this. But then in second and third grade, instead of taking the time to answer her questions her teachers would accuse her of not listening well enough and she would be chastised but not helped. So of course she eventually just stopped asking questions. And when she started scoring poorly on tests the teachers blamed her. Their solution was to send her to the resource room for a half hour a day where they didn’t even work on class material with her! The class sizes here are large and the teachers have no patience for any child who doesn’t understand a lesson immediately. Rather than taking the time to help them learn they would rather just blame the kid.Parent Review5y ago - Trinity Lutheran Child Care Center & Kindergarten
