Helen Keller Elementary School

Hi there! I am a Woodmoor Elementary parent who had a decent experience for one year, and then tragedy struck our family. My eldest lost his only grandma and we had elected to and paid to be in the PACE program. Instead of being treated like people, we were treated like criminals. I tried multiple times to ask for support materials as we navigated the rocky road of loss and responsibility. In the end, every effort was "donated" or thrown away because we were deemed delinquent. -0 stars

I really wanted to love this school but since Mr. DeGallier left it has gone down hill drastically. Instead of lifting disadvantage kids up they take away everything from all the students to make things equal. A lot of parents have given up and left the school and it sad to see. They often dismiss the parents they looks for a quick fix. It feels like they care more about numbers and stats and not at all about the kids.

Highly recommend the preschool and pre-K. The teachers there love the kids so much.We are evaluating each year to see if we will stay long-term. Kindergarten has been very hard for my older daughter.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Miss Mitali and Miss Malvika. Quite honestly, they are the kind of teachers every parent hopes their child will experience at least once, and the kind of educators who set a lifelong standard.What truly stands out is the level of detail they bring to everything they do. Whether it is daily updates, progress reflections, or personalized feedback, they go far beyond surface level communication. They clearly take the time to observe each child closely, understand their strengths, challenges, and personalities, and translate that into thoughtful and meaningful insights. Nothing ever feels generic. It always feels intentional and tailored, which gives us immense confidence as parents.Even more impressive is their empathy. They do not just teach, they connect. They understand that every child learns differently and bring patience, kindness, and genuine emotional awareness into the classroom every single day. The impact shows up not only in academic growth, but also in confidence, friendships, and the way the children genuinely look forward to going to school. They have created an environment where every child feels safe, seen, and encouraged.Their effort beyond academics has also been exceptional. The extracurricular activities and reviews they have organized are thoughtful and well structured. From creative projects to collaborative group efforts, every activity has a purpose and helps build both skills and relationships. They have done a remarkable job of bringing the entire class community together, creating a sense of belonging not just for students but for families as well.On a personal note, I genuinely wish I had teachers like them growing up. They are not just educators but role models and mentors who leave a lasting impression on every child they teach. We feel incredibly fortunate that our child has had the opportunity to learn from them.
