I have been going to this school and I am nearing the end of this school year. This school is not very motivating for students to learn things, I can recall at one point a teacher did not let students put their heads on the desk cause they would end up falling asleep. This school drowned my motivati
Posted by a community member on 6/13/2023The communication in this school is nothing, there is none whatsoever. There are some teachers that are good, but most of the teachers don't know how to teach. There should not be bullying in this school, yet my daughter went here and got bullied, then would come home crying and depressed. I watched
Posted by a parent on 3/16/2022some good teachers but most treat the student like they are stupid. also, with no supervision or discipline, I started harming myself because I believed the kids that told me that I was worthless and everyone would be better off without me, I had reported this behavior several times but nothing was
Posted by a student on 5/19/2021I went here a few years ago, and I only like about three of the teachers. I learned absolutely nothing besides that the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell. I was constantly failing with no support. All I was told was to talk to my parents or to do better. There was NO enforcing of the no bul
Posted by a community member on 4/24/2021Both of my kids went here and they had good experiences and great teachers. The school is in a nice neighborhood, but most of the students come from housing in poorer areas closer to Sprague Avenue, making it a school with a fairly high poverty rate for the Spokane Valley. As a result, there are dis

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageHard working teachers who follow lesson plans and are attentive to all children in class. I like the small class sizes and access to extra school activities like music, library, and PE days. Our teachers have been easy to reach and communicate with. They provide direct and specific feedback when asked which is very helpful as a parent. Love it!Parent Review4y ago - Mc Donald Elementary School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy child has been going to this school for 4 years now. They have been bullied constantly every year, and it got so bad last year that my child was getting physically pushed to the ground, punched and kicked almost daily. When my child would tell the supervisors, they said they would handle it but then do nothing. My child then went to the teacher and she also did nothing. We addressed the issue with the teacher and she blamed us, said our child was overreacting, and asked if there was something going on at home! We then went to the principal and she had no idea that the physical abuse from constant bullying was going on and she said she would address it. It did seem to get better after that, unfortunately it was towards the end of the school year after years of trying to get them to do something about it. We had hoped that maybe this year would be better, but my child has already been tied to a tree with a jump rope and whipped, and their shoes were taken off so they had to walk in the mud with just socks back to class! The supervisors again do nothing. This school is horrible at protecting their students, horrible at upholding their "anti-bullying" policy, and I find it ridiculous that my child should have to fear going to school everyday and come home with marks from getting picked on with absolutely no action being taken to stop it.Parent Review4y ago - Sunrise Elementary School
