I feel as if there is no social or peer support for students. I get contacted every day about stuff that a teacher should be able to handle. As a teacher, you should know that all students are not going to be the same and some may need more help than others, but that is no excuse to find any
Posted by a parent on 11/21/2025Everyone was amazing. They helped out with any and everything that I had for the registration of my child.
Posted by a parent on 7/30/2025Ms. Spain did such a lovely job! She was so helpful and informative. Thank you for all that you have done to make this an easy and fun process!
Posted by a parent on 7/29/2025This school is a joke! The reverse racism is justified and overlooked out of fear of being accused of being racist. So the issue repeats itself over and over until something serious happens that can’t be undone. And I refuse to wait around for that day.
Posted by a parent on 5/6/2022The rec centers have now gone up to 240$ a month and I now need to pay for before and after care due to the odd time frame ( 3 children) and not helping when they have to transfer to Middle School. They need to change school hours its unacceptable how this is even allowed.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI went to this school over 30 years ago, my oldest son went to this school, my youngest attends this school, my step children have attended this school and my daughter will soon attend this school. The teachers here really care about their students and communication is easy using class dojo. I can send a message and get a reply within the hour. We are kept up to date with assignments, forms needed, field trips, tests, events etc. My oldest son when he attended made honor roll, so does my current son that goes here. My son that currently goes does have an IEP and has additional support in the class room, everyone that supports him in school is friendly and very helpful and my son makes honor almost every quarter. I see the reviews about bullying but as long as you communicate with your child, their teacher etc its handled. The test scores I see aren't great for the school as a whole, hopefully it improves.Parent Review1y ago - Ingleside Elementary School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageBlessed ... We are simply blessed to be a part of the Dolphin Family. Test Scores won't show you how much these children are loved. But just to share, the school is fully accredited. My son and his classmates can't wait to get back to school starting at Friday dismissal.Parent Review7y ago - Tanners Creek Elementary School
