Both my children attend the Lewis Central Schools. I'm a little confused by the last poster who only gave LC Schools a 2 star rating, while at the same time saying how wonderful the teachers have been. We love this school system for our children. Over 75% of the teachers that work for this school have their Masters degrees in teaching. That alone speaks volumes; specifically that this school takes education seriously. The teachers are great with good attitudes, and they must enjoy where they work, as my kids have no complaints! Report cards are thorough, and leave nothing to question. Very good school!

I have two children that have attended this school. The older one is special needs while the younger is neurotypical. My younger child 'fits the mold' if typical students and has excelled both academically and socially (this assessment is based off of one year of full day preschool). My older child, on the other hand, has struggled every year. With the excaption of one year, every individual classroom teacher he has had has been fantastic. They have recognized his needs and have done their best to accomodate as well as assist me in the struggle with the district as a whole for specialized services. Long story short, the teachers (overall) are great. The district is great if you have a child that fits their mold. We are currently looking into moving to another school district.

EA Kreft Elementary has been a real good school for my students attending there. My son who went to a school in NE was unable to read and or write by the end of kindergarten so I had to start him over. At this time he is writting better and learning to read. The year is far from being over. The children really enjoy the school. They always talk about music and the library and PE. This is a great improvement from last year in NE. I have spent some time in the class with them and they seem to like there teachers and students. I think that the school is a good school to attend. The achedimics seem to be plenty for children there age and the teachers and principal all seem to be very personable. I don't like the fact that they mail the report cards.
