I have not had any issues with Norhtwest. The teachers are awesome. Hard work keeping track of all those kids. I don't mind making contributions of hand sanitizer, kleenex and wipes to my kids' classes. I know their budget is limited. To the teachers at Northwest...thanks for all you do.
Didn't get a warm, fuzzy feeling from this school. Therapists have more power than the teachers, much like a charter school. Principal is a very nice person, but doesn't follow up on promises. We did really like some of the specials teachers, though.
The parents of this school have no sense of reality. The PTO is full of woman with big heads. There is lunch staff issues, fire hazards during the lunchtime for 5th graders folding tables stacked in a way that would prohibit the students to exit the lunch room safely. A teacher/counselor believes children with asthma can learn to breath through asthma attacks. Be sure you don't respond to a phone call and rush over to the school. You might just get yelled and screamed at for showing up to take care of an issue. Instead of fundraisers now they demand that you fork over $25 at the beginning of the school year to support the school. Instead of asking for help they try to demand it. The only good thing about the school is the teachers. I am very glad this is my last year there and it is only October.
We are thrilled so far with our experiences at northwest. Our son loves school and every year his teachers (classroom and specials) have gone above and beyond to make sure that he is learning and growing. We are very happy with everything the school has to offer our family.
