My daughters have been attending Custer since day one of Kindergarten. My older is now a 5th grader and I also have a 1st grader and they BOTH LOVE IT!

Posted by a parent on 2/25/2020When we moved here a year ago I was concerned over the low 2/10 rating. Let me assure you that the number reflected is by no means the rating this school should have. The staff and principle, Kathy Weymiller, are not just employees at Custer who clock in and out. These wonderful people love the stud

Posted by a teacher on 3/9/2018The teachers at Custer are wonderful. They really care about the kids and do their best to help the kids succeed. The administration of the school needs work.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAs a former student, it is a great school, just a few complaints.1. Many of the staff seem to have a condescending attitude towards students who did nothing2. The new counselor seems to halfheartedly address issues such as bullying, and has even laughed at bullying reports.Other than those two problems, this is a great school to go to.Other Review2y ago - Park Lodge Elementary School
