Tillicum Elementary School

Our daughter attended this school for two years and we are so happy that she started her education here. Her teachers were so kind and supportive and helped her to learn and grow in confidence. A military move forces our leaving and we are all unhappy about it. Thank you Carter Lake for a great two years.

Administration and staff have poor communication for services for special education students.

When I went to the school I was 8 years old now I am 18 and the teachers and staff both said to my mother to her face that I was too stupid to teach,and I was bullied by teachers and staff and when ever I did something I was supposed to do i was called out for being too stupid for it and I have very bad ptsd because of the school

My daughters first year at Tyee Park was a successful introduction to "traditional" school systems and I believe it was a successful school year. She had an amazing teacher that cared and saw to it that her testing performance scores rose with testing each quarter. I felt as though there were enough opportunities for parental engagement, conferences were held often enough to check in and correct any potential issues, learning, developmentally, or otherwise. I felt heard and understood by her teacher, the principal and other staff. I feel as though the student and staff bodies are diverse, something I was looking for in a school. She will be attending Tyee Park next school year.

When I was there in 2016 for my prek and kindergarten the teachers were actually caring and not making everything about themselves and teaching it properly so the a students can remember it and use it. Would recommend this school.
