The staff at this school is amazing. We did have one teacher incident but we went directly to the principal, vice principal, counselor and they were immediately responsive and took quick action to rectify the situation. Our child is struggling with ADHD and it is early on with diagnosis but the staf
Posted by a parent on 3/14/2025I am not sure why this school is a 4/10. Quite frankly, they deserve a 10/10. Amazing staff, safe school, all around terrific district. I am so happy to have my kids in this school and district! Thank you Collins Elementary for being a great school for my kids. I wouldn’t have them go anywhere else!
Posted by a parent on 3/31/2022Wonderful, all the way around. The 4/10 rating is misleading and, frankly, wrong. Probably was rated by bitter parents whose children, for whatever reason, either didn't do as well as the parents expected or whose children were 'part of the problem' instead of 'part of the solution'. I can't imagine

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageComing from experience going to this school made me realize how poor teacher’s treat students and don’t care about safety matters or your emotions well being, food was at absolutely disgusting, was overly greased and made a few students nauseous, nor vegetables were added in the menu. In conclusion this school is horrible.Other Review1y ago - The United Interdenominational

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe teachers (Mrs. Harris, Mrs. Perez, Ms. Helland, Ms. Iverson) that my sons have had are amazing. They are always communicating with parents and keeping them up to date. The principal is friendly and constantly engaging with the students. The specialist are interactive and fun to be in class with per my kids. Mr Hurt the gym teacher inspires my kids to go out and have fun and motivates them; One thing I find amazing is that the gym teacher greets my kids every morning by name. It shows me they take extra time to know who my child is, to the staff at Thompson my child is not just a number and a statistic but a person. So far my experience in Thompson has been great.Parent Review3y ago - Parkland Lutheran Church & School
