I have 2 kids at Winnebago my 4th grader is doing good overall, but my kindergartner is having a really hard time with the teacher. I’m very unhappy with the kindergarten program.

Our child is having his best time at this school. The teachers and principal are very knowledgeable and can evaluate the level of the student effectively to help the child learn at his/her own pace.

Our son went to this school from K-4. There are some teachers in this school who went over and beyond to help him when he had a learning block. After that he excelled in math and reading, was in the top 3% in state in MAP testing for math and reading. Not sure why it has this low rating but we are glad our son went there to be in an environment with all kids of different backgrounds.

Both of my kids go here and it has been completely positive. Every teacher they have had has been attentive and helping them strive to do their best (my son struggles academically, but his teachers have always helped him in every possible way). The new principal is fantastic - personable, friendly, and my kids love him. My only gripe is, and not of the school's fault, is they are trying to teach too much, too fast. I know that is the State that gives these teachers the requirements, which is sad. As for the school itself...fantastic!

My son goes to Winnebago and is doing great. The teachers are wonderful and I am very happy with this school. We have a new principal this year but he seems to be a good fit. I hope the school continues in the direction it is going.

For years the school has had great reviews. Over the last couple years it has really gone down hill. Teaching is too fast for a lot of students and instead of making sure that the kids are understanding what they are being taught, they are pushed harder. A lot of parents complain about this school. I will be moving out of district after this year is over.
