Pertzsch Elementary School

Wonderful school, amazing teachers and paras. Every person in the school is very approachable and caring.

Bad. Staff is outstanding. Principal & office, not so much. Never a smile, never an acknowledgement, not even a hi.

Through the supportive staff and the IB model, my kids have learned life long skills that will set them up for success in the future. They invite family in for several events that truly embody the International part of their name. Full of diversity and opportunities, we chose NWI for our children. Spanish is also taught in rotation with specials such as Art, Music, and PhyEd.

I'm not sure about the data used for ranking schools when Northside Elementary was recognized by the Wisconsin dpi as a 2012-2013 school of recognition for closing achievement gaps. This rating system seems seriously flawed.

We love Summit so much. It's nice to have the small-town school feel while still being so close to La Crosse and all its conveniences. Summit is very hands-on with nature and teaches the kids best practices with regard to being respectful of nature. My daughter has been going here since 4k and is now in 2nd grade. Ms. Leon (4k), Ms. Wappler (2nd grade), Ms. Veum (School Social Worker) and Mr. O (PE) are the kindest most understanding people who have helped my daughter on difficult days. She has some behavioral challenges and this school has been very good for her emotional growth. I am forever grateful for the staffs' love and support of my daughter. Mr. Uribe (Principal) is an amazing addition to the school. He is very hands-on and is frequently assisting with drop-offs and pickups as well as other school events.We are sadly moving out of the state and will no longer be able to attend Summit. I wanted to share my parting thoughts on this school for anyone who might be considering Summit as an option.

I currently have four children attending this school and am so pleased at the level of dedication from the faculty and staff at St. Pauls. The quality of education is excellent. Teachers care about their children. Parents are trying to connect in school and outside of school. And above all, Christ is the center of the learning.
