This was my neighborhood school. It was disgusting. Some of the things I experienced here should have shut this school down and I had no education at all here.
Posted by a parent on 7/21/2025The principal Ms Honeycutt should retired or quit she thinks that just because she is seen everywhere in the building it makes a difference well it doesn't if your presence makes no difference why come she always got something to say instead of running her mouth she need to address the concerns I ha
Posted by a parent on 12/9/2016Teachers need to be careful wot there words amd how the speak to children. Teachers are supposed to be role models for are chikdren and outti g forth effort if a student isnt able to do so.....stuff def needs to change and have more teachers on board for the ones that need the extra work.
Posted by a parent on 1/7/2015I was very excited about this school until my son actually started. I believe the teachers care about the students but I did not get that same feeling from the principal, Mrs. Honeycutt. The classrooms are very large and the discipline issues are overwhelming.
Posted by a parent on 1/4/2015My oldest child has attended Willard since Kindergarten, and is a current fifth grader. We love this school, and feel like it is a family-friendly atmosphere.

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is not for me at all. The kids there were rude and make fun of anyone and everyone for simply living at that point. The teachers never talked things out ever. One teacher even pulled in my ear. They made me feel unsafe and trapped by saying “even if you switch classes you’ll still see me” like a threat.Don’t go here it’s not safe or healthyOther Review1y ago - Lindenwood Elementary School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMany, many years ago, I taught kindergarten at Lindenwood. It was on of my very best teaching experiences! There was great parent evolvement there! Great community school! Yes, there were some behavior issues. You’ll find that anywhere. However, I had incarcerated parents, yet they absolutely adored their child! I had exhausted students because their new sibling slept in the same room. Oh, there were many more! However, we just rolled with it all, trying to meet the needs of every student on every level! The students wanted to learn! Over all students were well behaved. I’d go back in a heartbeat if I still lived there!Teacher Review3y ago - Norview Elementary School
