The worst elementary school I've ever had to deal with. Extremely understaffed, no care for students, expects all students to be perfect, terrible special education, fake employees. So much bullying and it's only K-5!!!

Your child will learn, but it's not a warm welcoming environment..

Very clichey, everything seems to be brushed off. Lots of bullying that never gets addressed. Understaffed and it shows.

Two of my sons are going through workman Elementary school. They both had a wonderful experience. My older son was in an advanced reading group and reads at a middle school level in the fourth grade. He was also in advanced mathematics. Last year they made a business plan to develop a new product to sell in a school market. They had to manage the cost for resources labor in production or setting a price point to sell at the school market fair. Parents were invited to come and buy items and 4th graders got to learn about running a business. It was a tremendous experience.My son is also friends with one of the kids that has special needs. He’s began volunteering at a summer football camp for kids with special needs. I’m thankful he’s had this opportunity to interact with people who are different than himself.My younger son continues to read at about one grade ahead of his reading level. We found the teachers send out a weekly communication and respond quickly to emails. We are very happy with the staff that we’ve interacted with so far.

My son started kindergarten mid-way through the school year. The entire onboarding process was very effective. On the day of enrollment itself, he felt very comfortable and welcomed. He made good progress and the teacher communicated very effectively on a weekly basis.

Our children started mid-way through the school year. They were welcomed and made to feel part of the class immediately. The teachers have been wonderful. They communicate well with the parents and the children are engaged in their classwork. The Principal is wonderful. He is involved and has a calm demeanor.

This school is fantastic. It has an exciting and engaging curriculum that has kept both of my children engaged. The staff members are very professional. All of my children's teachers have worked with us to make sure the children are working on any problem areas and keeping them challenged. A school doesn't exist in a vaccuum, and this one is placed in a neighborhood with caring and engaged parents. Parent volunteers work with the staff to help out on a weekly basis, and there is a strong PTO and scouting program as well. If you have a choice, send your child here to go to school.

I am a student at this school and everything's great about it! This year they are trying to add iPads for learning reasons. The school's got a pretty big library and in the morning a news broadcast type of thing.

Workman continues to offer a quality education. I had originally planned to have my daughter only attend public school through grade two, but now plan to continue her at Workman for grade three.
