Reba O Steck Elementary School

I did not care for this school at all. My son did not make any connections at this school. It is not diverse at all! My son was in Kindergarten and never talked about school ever. He never mentioned his teacher. I was very worried that he would not like school. Now he goes to another school in the district and he loves it. His 1st grade teacher was awesome and now he is loving 2nd grade. The difference is there is a lot more diversity and he his able to make connections! Learning is fun for him now!

I am a sub and this school is excellent. The teachers are really car about the students and what they are teaching. For those who criticize the music and art programs, all I have to say is you come up with 75+ new lesson plans each year. The regular ed teachers do it, you just don't notice because your kids have moved up a grade.

Very disappointed in specials at Steck. The music program does the same program over and over, year after year. If you have three kids...you will see the same program for each child. The art program needs to expand also. Again, the same projects are done year after year. At this year's Fine Arts Festival, I guarantee you there will be snowman and drawings of athletic shoes.

Teachers are very good, especially third and fourth grades. Administrators [are] out of touch with both the school and the students. Art and Music teachers also should be replaced. No imagination, no vision.

This school is wonderful! The principal runs it effectively and is highly regarded. The teachers love to teach, are very upbeat and are always willing to help. After switching our children from another school, this school far surpasses our previous school. It also goes above and beyond our expectations. I highly recommend this school, you will not be disappointed!
