If I could give this school a negative I would. My son started kindergarten here and he was bullied the first week of school. The teacher has lied about events and not informed us when my son was sent to the nurse due to another child hitting him. This had happened 3 times and all 3 times the princi
Posted by a parent on 10/10/2025Westside is in amazing and supportive elementary school with a lot of heart and community support. Even after going there for a few months, when my son would come into the school and be greeted by name by teachers and staff members alike. They call themselves "one family" and it shows.

Posted by a parent on 1/12/2023Whomever is ranking this school above anything negative obviously works here. This place is a piece of work. Urban inner-city children receive more love and learning than this place.
Posted by a parent on 3/18/2014Westside is a wonderful, enriching & safe environment for my son. The teachers are excellent and the principal is involved & has set the school on a great path.

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSo far, so good, as a parent of a new kindergartner - and as a parent who follows local and school-wide events and news. We have had nothing but quick, courteous communication in response to concerns.Those with general concerns should seriously consider attending the PTO (CH BEST) meetings. They seem to be sparsely attended (other than by the PTO board/members and the principal/staff), so it is easier to have an impact and be heard than if dozens of parents showed up.Parent Review6y ago - Eastside Elementary School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI have helped in the classroom in the 2024 school year. The teachers really care and I am very pleased with the staff.I do wish the teachers still sent home books each week, at each child’s level, especially in grades K - 3. Most parents need this support.Other Review1y ago - Royal Oaks Elementary School
