Best school experience i could have ever had.
Posted by a parent on 12/13/2022I really have enjoyed our time at Emerson. There are many opportunities to get involved and stay active in the learning environment. My daughter dealt with some kids who were dealing with some personal issues. They were lashing out at her. The principal and the teachers worked together to achieve th
Posted by a parent on 8/18/2018I would say this school is one of the worst schools to send your child. It's almost the end of the year and I feel as if I need to pull my child out from this establishment. No help what so ever with staff.
Posted by a parent on 2/6/2018Our oldest child is in 2nd grade at Emerson and it has been a great experience so far! Classes are kept small - less than fifteen students per class and there are often assistants in the classroom as well. The curriculum is strong and carefully adapted to for each member of the diverse student body.

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOur family has been attending IMA for the past 3 years and are so grateful to the school and community we have found. We are greeted with smiles each day. Communication is clear - the whole school sends out regular updates (newsletters twice a month and additional reminders to upcoming events), and are fast to respond to questions when our family reaches out. Teacher turnover during the pandemic was higher than non pandemic years (as it was with every school country-wide...) but since, it has definitely seemed to improve and the school seems to have come out stronger than ever. Year after year I see the same staff (front desk, classroom teachers, administration) which is always great to see - and they know all the students and parents by name. It's a medium size school with a small school feel. I sometimes hear new parents talking about the outdoor space and how they wish that there was a more traditional 'playground', however whenever I pick-up my child and see the kids playing ... the outdoor space is exactly what the kids want when playing with their friends! They have forts in the prairie, mowed grass for sports, trees to climb, logs and sticks to build with, mud kitchens, a gaga ball pit, and so much more! We love IMA and will continue to recommend it to everyone we meet with children!Parent Review8mo ago
