My child was almost choked out by another student today. I didn't find this out till the drive home. This isn't the first time this school has failed to protect the students. But it is the last time with my child. They need to fire the whole staff and start from scratch.

Staff is very friendly and caring. They put the kids first. There is great communication with the parents. The principal listens to any concerns you have and tries to find a solution. My children are challenged intellectually. We love this school! Truly a hidden gem.

I love that fact that the new principal has arranged for meetings monthly with parents. She seems to hear our voices and truly cares what we think. I have learned a lot at the Coffee Cup meetings.

I really like that at anytime we as parents can call the teacher and discuss any issue that we may come across as far as bullying goes and they take the time to find a solution to everything.

They have so many resources available to the students who have more needs than others .

I feel that the teachers at Wilson are all great especially the Mrs. Sundermeyer. I have had a great year with her educating my son she has gone above and beyond for my kiddo , I am sure all the other teachers are as great as her. They all will give each student the time needed to meet they're individual needs.

My son had a packet with 5 pages for homework for the week we would read for 15 minutes and do one page a day it wouldn't take us more than 35 minutes to read and do his assignment for the day. It was a nice way to keep him going with what he was learning in class.

I rated Wilson Elementary a 4 star school because My son started his Kindergarten class there and I have to say that I have had nothing but great experiences with the faculty there they take care of really educating our children , my son needs a bit more help and he has tutoring twice a day , his teacher goes above and beyond for all of her students as other teachers do , the front office ladies are awesome and its a safe school overall. The Faculty always makes time for parents with a short notice .

My son attended this school during during fall of 2011 for kindergarten. We lasted two weeks before pulling him out. His teacher was rude and continued to be less than helpful. Long story short, you won't get very far with this school unless you speak Spanish.

Three of my children attended this school 2011-12 school year. I have two kindergartners and a 1st grader. My first grader's teacher, I have not been impressed with once this school year. He needs help and he doesn't get it from her and I have discussed this with her countless times. One of my k's teachers I adore! She is an outstanding instructor who truly loves her profession and really cares about the children she is teaching. My other k's teacher, has been very absentminded and takes quite a long time to get back to me on any of my concerns if ever. I don't beleive that overall my children are being pushed as much as they could be and there seems to be a lot more play than learning.
