Children get a great education. The teachers and staff care about the students.
I have two children in the poynette school district. One in high school and the other in the elementary school. I have nothing negative to say about the elementary school. The high school I have had some issues with but have since worked out. The biggest thing I had a concern with is my childs safety in the school.
Poynette encorage their students to try everything that is offered in a small town lifestyle. The school encorages the students to expand out side the normal and see things through others eyes. Like any small town school we have our issues, but we always seem to pull together just in time to make it right. the teachers really want to see the students not only get good grades but understand how they will apply it towards life.
Poynette is very proactive and the teachers give all the kids an equal opportunity to succeed. They are very active with the students and offer many opportunities so the kids have many positive choices. They strive to give the parents good communication so parents can stay informed with whats going on with their child. I'm proud my children have had a chance to succeed at Poynette High School.
They have an excellent sports program and have respectful students.
Poynette still has the small town attitude and is keeping the students close knit in its community with a solid education from this school.
I feel the our school cares more about money then any child. Our kids can not get one extra egg in family living because of the budget and we can't afford to enter the spelling bee but we can send a losing basketball team to MN. School taxes went up 26% this year with 50% of our total tax bill going to the school. The school now charges for parking and raised lunch $. Money seems to be the priority then sports and winning at all cost. Our school has a 0 tolerance for bullying, but the bullying is not acknowledge by administration that is how we keep it at 0%.
