We have had awesome teachers three years in a row and our child is doing great. The music teacher is wonderful, very creative and very happy to talk with parents. Lots of neat programs and staff is very willing to take suggestions and works hard to meet needs of all their students. We love the marathon of knowledge:) Fun way to raise money and get the parents involved.

My family moved to the area from out of state and both of my children had been attending private school. I was very concerned having to send them to public school, but our experience at Martin has certainly changed my mind! We have never seen such a caring and concerned faculty, teachers who communicate, encourage, and truly enjoy the children. I was also impressed with the constant training, and application of new and inovative teaching methods and ideas.

Update - we lost a great music teacher. Remains to be seen if the replacement is good. But, on the whole, I have been satisfied with our kindergarten experience and look forward to another good year at Martin. Nice small school with good teachers who stay at this school for the long-run. Good principal and good librarian also.

The music department is superior and greatly appreciated. The teachers are there to help each student and go out of their way to provide their special needs.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Wisconsin used the Wisconsin Student Assessment System (WSAS), which includes the WKCE and WAA, to test students in grades 3 through 8 and 10 in math and reading, and in grades 4, 8 and 10 in language arts, science and social studies. The WSAS is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Wisconsin. The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level. In private schools, only voucher program participants are tested.
