George Washington Elementary School

N/A

I am new to this school and am holding out on my rating for our new kindergarten student, but the staff has been friendly and the kids seem to enjoy being there. We've one in preschool though and she has special needs. I've been mostly very pleased with the schools response to her needs.

Although my child has just started attending school (she is in Pre-k). We are extremely happy with her teacher, principal and their concern for her education. I have no complaints. She is advancing quickly, her teacher is very hands on and keeps me informed of her progress, and her Principal visits her classroom often and stays involved. I also love that she looks forward to attending school everyday, this tells me that the Staff is keeping learning fun.

My kids have been to a few different Marion City Schools and I can honestly say that this one is by far the worst. Week after week the same issue arises and their solution is therapy and medication whatever it takes to avoid addressing the real issue. No corrective measures are being taken for the repeated behavior issues. I am in the process of switching my child to another school. I asked to have my student switched classrooms to avoid switching schools but it turned into a debate and was told they would constantly be switching kids around if they switched every time there was a problem which lets me know I am not the only one having issues NOT being handled. It get exhausting after about the seven or eight time . Not professional in any way, shape or form. Never again would I send a child to McKinley Elementary!!!
