I have two kids in this school now and two more on the way. We have had an excellent experience over the past few years with the special ed programming, core academics, extracurriculars offered, and parent engagement. From my observations, it is one of the most diverse student populations in the area and has diverse leadership. I am very pleased with the school and would recommend it.

Have had two kids go through parkway and pre pandemic it was excellent you would walk through the halls see parents reading to kids, there was a ton of parental involvement. for all the activates you could not sign up fast enough and the teachers are top tier. and I love how inclusive it is where you have kids with different abilities in the classroom it made my kids more understanding and kind to others that are different. I feel my kids got a quality education..

Our experience has been excellent, the teachers and administration have been responsive and proactive in addressing some of our daughter's special needs. The student body at Parkway is diverse both in race and socioeconomic class; I can't imagine it being handled better than the current staff does.

If you are a parent involved in your child's education, this is NOT the place to send him/her. The faculty has almost no diversity, while the children of color population is exploding. The school has low expectations for the kids and it shows in the children's poor behavior. Just look at the test scores. This is school is on a rapid decline.

What a great school. Great leadership and very skilled teachers. The administration and teachers expect and receive the very best from their students. Parkway has a very positive climate.
