Kyrene de los Lagos School

The Lagos staff is amazing. My children truly enjoy this school. The principal is inviting and has the best interest of kids at heart. There are so many family activities and ways for parents to be involved.

The principal is never able to speak with you: I waited for over three days to talk with her and she just laughed as she does with most things such a poor principal!! I pulled my children and never looked back:(

My two children went to Lagos and my daughter is now in college and my son is at Akimel. They both loved their school and always wanted to be there. My daughter ran for Student Council and her interest in that continued High School. Ms. Anderson helped my son who was on the cusp of gifted and he is now working 2 grade levels up in middle school. Parents are welcomed and encouraged to be involved. I'm lucky the school is in my neighborhood and helps maintain our property values. Thanks to all who choose Lagos - a great place for kids.

My son is a first grader at Lagos. He loves going to school each day and is excited to share all the new things he has learned. In addition to loving his classroom teacher, he also loves having music, art and PE. Those special teachers are very encouraging and positive with him. He attends Kids Club after school and begs for me to leave him there late. We live in the Kyrene district but not in the neighborhood. I choose to bring my son here because of all of the opportunites at Lagos. The prinicipal, Mrs. Yalung is awesome. My son enjoys talking with her and and meeting her for special lunches.

After having a poor experience with another school district we enrolled our children in Lagos. We have had nothing but positive experiences with teachers, administration, and other students. Our children are thriving in this school.

My children love going to school every day. The new principal, Mrs. Yalung, is outstanding. My children enjoy talking with her and seeing her at recess. Both of my boys went through the 2 year program, keeping the same teachers for 1st and 2nd grade. Both teachers, Ms. Letofsky and Mrs. Johnson were fabulous and taught my children to above grade level skills. We also had Ms. Claire (K) and Ms. Badzik (3rd) and my children enjoyed learning in their classrooms. Simply awesome teachers in every grade. We do not live in the neighborhood. I choose to drive my children the distance because this school is worth the trip. My boys have participated in many after school activities, boot camp, reading club, chess club, and ceremics. This school is excellent! Leadership is a plus.

I really love this school. I have seen a lot of improvement over the last two years in the administration and the security of the school. Great great great teachers who really love the kids and want them not only to learn but also to feel good about themselves, too. Love the focus on the pillars of character -- so important. I have to say though that Miss Witthus rocks! She is the best teacher ever! So passionate about learning and so compassionate towards the children. She is an amazing asset not only to Lagos but to the entire Kyrene district!

A wonderful community for our family, a wonderful school for our children. Mrs. Johnson and Ms. Letofsky loop with their students in 1st and 2nd grade, creating a supportive and productive environment for our two children. Our children have loved these teachers; we have loved our experience at this school.
