Read what parents are saying about Bloomington SchoolThe Chinese Immersion program is top notch and the language ability of the kids coming out of this school is phenomenal. However, the greatest asset of this school is the growth mindset taught by the teachers and the staff that run the school.
Posted by a parent on 6/19/2020We've had a mostly positive experience at this school, with the exception of the teachers who'd be better off teaching higher grades than elementary-aged kids. It can be a challenge trying to express and resolve concerns with faculty and staff, as much of it takes place via written communication. There are teachers who are clearly unfamiliar with special needs, who seem to believe that students with "invisible disabilities" can and should manage their behaviors just like every other "normal student." (Invisible disabilities being things like OCD, ADHD, high-functioning autism, anxiety, etc.) There are teachers whose main form of discipline is taking recess away from kids who really need a break from focusing for 6.5 hours. Kids NEED recess, especially kids with special needs who have a difficult time focusing in school to begin with!There are issues with pick-ups after school. People who have to use their front seats are not allowed to use the carpool lane and are invited to: 1) Have their children crawl over their laps, 2) Park and walk their children across the crosswalk into the school, or 3) Park down the street, off school property, and have their children walk to the school. The last option is concerning if you have LITTLE kids (think of kindergartners walking 400 yards to school alone, not knowing if they make it through the front doors of the school in the morning because you don't see it with your own eyes...and the reality is, sometimes mom or dad are in their robe and don't want to walk their children into the school!) After-school pick-up is dangerously chaotic, because there are LOTS of parents avoiding the pick-up lane due to the hassles they've had with school personnel, which means LOTS of kids darting to and fro in the roads next to the school and crossing the street in front of cars, unsupervised by school personnel who are more worried about kids getting run over in the pick-up lane where they're at least being SUPERVISED! (Some kids who walk home are stopped and told they aren't allowed to walk home, while the parents have been advised to have their children say they're walking home just so they can walk to the streets to meet their parents).
Posted by a parent on 12/19/2019This school is ok if you have a good student. If your child needs any special attention they are a little clueless on what to do. While I think the teachers are caring, they don't have any systematic methods to help different learners. I've had two kids there, one was in special ed. That program was a hot mess! They would call me every day asking me what to do with my child. I had to take him out of that school. My other child does ok there and is in the immersion. They act as if Chinese is a core subject, they get very anxious that he's not learning to read Chinese as quickly as the other students, I want him to do his best too, but not to where he it's practicing during non-Chinese subjects. I don't understand since Chinese is not a requirement.
