Wheeler Elementary

"We have enjoyed our experiences with Wheeler Elementary. We loved Kids Garden (yea Ms. Davidson and Mrs. Heard!) as well as the combined classroom track available which had kids of different ages working at or above their grade level (K&1, 2nd&3rd, 4th&5th). While there were times we wish homework was more stringent, we saw how different teachers were able to use different methods to work with individual students. From K-5th we only had one issue and the teachers worked diligently to find a solution and make sure it didnt get out of hand. Keep up the good work Wheeler Wildcats!"

"Two of my children have gone there and my third is about to start. Most of the classroom teachers are great. Others I think could have pushed my children a little harder. All of the special area teachers are wonderful and really care about he kids. I have problems with the principal and the counselor. The children who are trouble makers, who pick on the other kids, who don't do what they are supposed to and who don't respect their teachers get treated great while the kids who are respectful and courteous, who do what they are supposed to do get nothing. The principal and counselor will walk the hall with the disruptive kids and give them suckers to help calm them down. They get to play basketball in the gym while the other students who don't cause problems are doing work in the classroom. They have been given pizza parties for doing certain things that they should have been doing all along. The principal doesn't seem to care what happens to the other kids. She has told the teachers that if something happens in the classroom to handle it in the classroom. So in conclusion: the school and teachers are great. The principal and the counselor, not so much."
