We have been pleased with the positive learning environment at Webster Stanley Elementary. The principal (Mr. Manders) is approachable and friendly, and my kids feel he is someone they would go to for help. My daughter's first grade teacher practices positive discipline and tries to support individual learning. The pre-K program is led by an excellent teacher who inspires and prepares students for lifelong learning. Barb, the secretary, is caring and sends kids letters throughout the year. The counselor, the art teacher, and the music teacher have all made a significant difference in my daughter's education. How fortunate we are to have so many individuals who care about our kids and their education, even when our government seems to care only about testing and depleting our educational resources. Thank you to the teachers and staff at Webster Stanley Elementary!

my 1st grade daughter is bullied, singled out and made to feel bad by her teacher. she's held accountable for other student's actions and made to face consequences by the teacher for what other students are doing. i'm not sure how to deal with this teacher. i have had conferences with her that have made no change. my happy daughter is now unhappy and seems to not care about her behavior because she's made to feel as if she can't do anything right anyway. i am very unhappy with the treatment of my daughter.

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.
