Summit View Elementary School

This is a good school if your child does not need extra help to succeed. I am a very involved parent and do not expect the school to do it all, yet I basically was told when I requested the school to evaluate my son (via IDEA, IEP, 501 plan) that unless he is FAILING no additional help will be provided. So with that said ... be prepared that unless your child is FAILING, do not expect this school's administration to provide your child extra assistance. No, they would rather your child FAIL first (thus plummeting their self esteem and of course once that happens, it is that much harder for your child to believe they are smart and can succeed). Sadly, I do not believe other schools in Waukesha would be any different. It's all about the money and no longer about the children. Case in point ... the doctor I met with to evaluate my child (a child neurologist) was boggled on why he wasn't already getting help. His pediatrician said the same thing. It was also stated by medical professionals that if I expect any help from Waukesha that I'd be better off getting a lawyer. Why should I have to do that, I ask? Why can't our schools just be expected to do the right thing?
