Mirror Lake Elementary School

My son is in Kindergarten and he loves it there. He stays in the ASP program 3 or 4 days a week and has asked to stay all 5. When the school year started our son didnt know how to read yet but now (March) he is reading at a 3rd grade level. It might be the teachers and not the school, but either way its working great for my son. Mrs Holland and Mrs. Paseno are his Kindergarten teachers and if you have a choice, that is where you should put your kids! Only negative would be the way the front desk makes you feel if you check you child out or in. We have checked my son out 2 times this year and checked him in 2x's but we are made to feel like it is a weekly thing.

My daughter is in first grade this year. She is struggling with her reading. This is being addressed by her teacher. I think that her teacher is doing a wonderful job. I think that my daughter is holding back. She reads at home all the time. She loves going to school at MLES. She really LOVES her Art and Music teachers. She is very excited the days that she goes to specials.

This school is filled with teachers and administrators who truly care about their children.

I've been generally disappointed. Our child mastered most of the standards before entering kindergarten. My fear was that she would be unchallenged for much of the year and I see that coming true. Just as concerning is the lack of information flow. I have to pull information from the teacher about what we should work on at home. It's difficult to be a partner with the teacher if the teacher doesn't share information back. To be fair, our child loves the teacher and enjoys school. The classroom is vibrant and the teacher is obviously knowledgeable. There just doesn't seem to be any attempt to let parents participate in the learning process beyond reading with the child and doing sight words. For students who are ready to move beyond the standards, I think the school is failing - for students performing at grade level, I'd say the school is top-notch

This school believes that you should pass your child up, regardless if they are learning the work or not.They will try to say its a disibility the child has to keep pusing them up. This has happenend to my child. At this school. The school is not a good school, I regret ever sending my children their.

As a parent I look for a school with great teachers. This year I asked the parents I knew which teachers they liked best- every parent named a different teacher meaning ---they liked all of them. Aftere the first few months of school I am thrilled with my teacher!
