Inglewood Elementary School

Wonderful, caring environment. Energetic staff and leadership. Individual needs of each student addressed thoroughly. We love Inglewood!

My second child is a 3rd grader at Inglewood and I could not be more pleased. My first child came into Inglewood Kindergarten with an IEP (Individualized Education Plan). We had regular meetings regarding the fulfillment of the plan. The administration was different then but the current administration is just as responsive to the needs of my daughter. I've witnessed the teachers work with all sorts of students. They make them feel heard and wanted. They coax an amazing amount of creativity out of the children. It is an Environmental Sciences STEAM school and I have never witnessed such a cohesive multi-level, multi-discipline school. Every grade level is on target with their STEAM projects, my kid comes home with enthusiasm for her work. The Art teachers (music, art, library) inspire my daughter to be better and to want to learn more. The administration is creative in its problem-solving. It's responsive to parents. it's loving to the children.The teacher-to-student ratio is low. The facilities are extremely well maintained, with SMART boards throughout the school, and new, eco-themed, eco-friendly, accessible playground equipment. The support staff is supportive of the children. The school itself is central to the South Inglewood community. The student body reflects the ethnic diversity of our neighborhood.Both of my girls excel in school because of the Inglewood faculty and staff. My oldest, now in the 7th grade, maintains relationships with teachers from Inglewood. Every year my youngest wants to teach each prior grade, citing last year's teacher as inspiration. If you want a small school where values such as compassion, respect, and love of learning are taught, a school that nurtures students of all learning styles, a school that understands that the education of the child includes the whole family I cannot think why you wouldn't choose Inglewood STEAM Magnet Elementary School.

I have been apart of the Inglewood Elementary community/family for the last 4 and a half years. I wouldn’t have picked another school to send my daughters. The curriculum is nothing short of amazing. My daughters have learned things that their friends in other schools have absolutely no knowledge of. The curriculums and learning styles have placed my daughters in higher rating levels compared to their peers who do not attend Inglewood as well. Principal Croft is amazing and helps to create that family feel. Inglewood is very close knit and supportive in not just our children’s education and learning, but also for parents. I have developed great relationships with fellow parents and we uplift one another. Especially during the challenging times of COVID.

Inglewood Elementary is a wonderful school and we are so glad that we found it while applying for the school lottery ! The staff there are incredible; they are all so patient, kind, and accommodating for all of the students, and they go above and beyond for the kids to be welcoming and help them even beyond academics. The teachers there work so hard for the kids and push them when they need it, but also work hard with those who may need the extra help or guidance. The class sizes are small, so we know our son is getting the time and energy he needs from his teachers to properly learn material. The school communicates very well with parents and families, and we always feel in the loop and like we know exactly what’s going on in the school and with our son’s learning. We love that the staff know all of the kids there and greet them warmly every single day. Our son, who is normally so shy and reserved, has blossomed at this school, and we wouldn’t trust him anywhere else ! We are so grateful for Inglewood

Inglewood is a hidden gem! The staff works very hard to address all of the students' needs, going well beyond academics. Teachers are communicative and supportive. Class sizes are small, and there is a focus on positive reinforcement. Each classroom has a calming zone, where kids can go when they're having big feelings. The variety of fun, free after school programs has been so great for us. And the playground is awesome!
