State Road Elementary School

I have 3 children at Emerson now, soon to be 4. We have had great teachers that have gone above and beyond. My children love going to school , and I think it has alot to do with the environment at Emerson!

This school has proven time and time again to me that there is little change in the way things are run. It is an "old school" way of thinking and it seems as though parent involvment is not very welcomed. There is a new principle now and small positive changes were seen in the past 2010-2011 school year. But La Crosse has choice schools in it's district and Spence just has not kept up with new and progressive changes that can be seen at other La Crosse Schools. It is disappointing, we are looking to move to another school.

Hintgen is a place that no kid should have to endure. The leadership of Principal Oliver is a joke. She doesn’t care what other people think and if you disagree with her, she will bully you through intimidation. I feel bad for the children and staff there. Open enroll elsewhere!

Excellent! The staff and building are awesome. This school has been around for 140+ years and the quality shows. I am so glad I sent my children here to learn about God's goodness and the academic world around them.

My son and daughter have been going since pre k and are both doing very well. Its been nice to see the school grow in size over the years and its structured in a way that produces strong leaders with a moral compass to follow.

Due to the excelled Clara Fields Pre-k Reading Program, the Fields' Graduates entering Clara Fields School of Excellence's Kindergarten will be taught at the 1st Grade-level by a State Certified and Licensed 1st Grade Teacher and additional training and supervision will be provided by the Executive Director, Mrs. Valjean Adams and their Superintendent, Dr. Gloria Belken, Ed. D. It is the school's goal to have in place their 1st Grade class by the beginning of the 2018-19 School Year. CFSE's 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th grades will be added yearly.
