IAWV Elementary School

Out of 3 schools, Bridgeview is the first one to accommodate to my son’s special needs instead of act like it was a hassle. My son has thrived in the special needs program at this school. At other schools, it is harder for a child with special needs. At Bridgeview, there is separate parking for the children with special needs which makes it so much easier on parents for drop off and pick up. The special needs teachers are so caring and kind.

I don’t like it it is super terrible

Kenna is the best little secret ever! Highly compassionate staff, excellent teachers who care and and most wonderful principal who is the nicest person ever! Way to go Kenna! So happy to be a part of you!

Many of the positive reviews for this school reflect the leadership of a former principal who was truly exceptional. Unfortunately, the current administration is a very different story. The principal and secretary are unapproachable, dismissive, and, in my experience, even bullying toward parents. There’s a clear message that families are not welcome as active participants in their children’s education.That said, the teachers continue to do a wonderful job and clearly care about their students. It’s unfortunate that their efforts are overshadowed by an administration that creates a toxic and unwelcoming environment for parents.
