South Wayne elementary ISTEP scores are considerably lower than the district average. which is much lower than the state average. With recent cutbacks to transportation my son was forced to go to South Wayne Elementary even though he does not ride the bus he is driven to school and picked up daily. I am very disappointed in the teachers and staff at South Wayne Elementary

I sent my children to South Wayne when we first moved to the Fort Wayne area. I am glad they only attended from April until June. My son was bullied constantly by students and staff alike. They did nothing to challenge my three children in the areas they excel, but instead focused on their weak points, without actually helping, only criticizing. Plus, two of my children's teachers did not want my input nor did they try to listen to anything I had to say on my kids. I am glad that I have found a school better suited to my children and myself.
