administration at this school is horrible!!! No support for students or parents either for that matter. Would not recommend this school for anyone!!
—Submitted by a parent


Posted November 9, 2009

This school is awesome. For the parent that said that they dont help the children with special needs that is absolutly wrong they have teachers that help with them every single day. And they dont give out Disorderly Conduct Tickets. That might be the teacher but not the school. I love almost every single teacher. They make learning very interesting and fun.

It's a amazing school There are great teachers and everybody is nice Parent below Me: Nobody gives out disorderly contact tickets.
—Submitted by a student

Not very supportive, Administrator's no in tune with reality. Example...... Disorderly Conduct Tickets to students? Not for fighting....for lack of following direction, not safety related, not because of disturbing a learning environment. What is this world coming to?

Do not place your child in school if he/she has special needs. Lack of support/very traumatic experience.

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.
