Barton Elementary School

Horrible. I'm in the 8th grade and graduating in 4 months. This school has no control over the students. Even the second graders are horrible. All the kid run out of class, cuss all the time, and there are always fights. Most teachers don't even teach. How do they expect to pass the Wisconsin Forward when they aren't even teaching what is on the test? Not to mention that most of the eight grade is on a 2nd - 6th grade reading and math level. Very horrible school. I do not recommend anyone to enroll their child in this school. Thank goodness this is my first and last year.

Great! Lots of opportunities for outside experiences (arts, educational ventures and real life exposure such as volunteering and helping other schools) and academic growth.

This school will have your children depressed this school is not for some children who is sensitive I am a student here been here since 2023|2025 now here in 2026 and it’s much worse than before.

I have 5 children that attend this school and we will not be returning next school year. The staff are very rude when parents ask legitimate questions we are met with combative dialogs and when we defend ourselves and our children we are threatened with being banned from the property, they use certain terminology such that can get parents in a lot of trouble. This does not have our children's best interest. They send out passive aggressive newsletter letters, they have no resources, They say they want to build relationships with parents but the principle will act like there's to many families for her to remember anyone.My son has a new teacher I have to make contact with, she's never reached out parents I don't know how my son is doing as of now and the school has yet to inform me. Overall this school needs better leadership and more staff that actually cares about our students education and we'll being.
