Will allow for incidents to effect your childs mental health. Doesnt take professional accountability for the harm they cause. when you go to the superintendent he will come out in your face and get puffy chested and make you so uncomfortable you wish to leave. Dont let them lie to you they have a formal complaint process.... but when you ask them they are never wrong even if the state doesnt agree. Allows for bullying to occur as well.

Kindergarten and 1st grade were a complete wash no one took the time to reach my child on his level nor bothered to intervene in his studies until now in 2nd grade. The school has so many extra bulljunk going on the focus is never education. Terrible test scores literally our only choice my kids go here because my wife says they have to. Other wise I'd never send them here intentionally.. the only positive is the few staff members that are awesome, the principal or VP guy, lady at the window a few teachers but that's it

Great new facilities with the support of a great community that takes care of its teachers. Easily the best choice for my children in the Bitterroot Valley.

Several WONDERFUL experiences with MANY teachers and admin.! HOWEVER, terrible experiences involving mistreatment of ADD child and allowing children to fall behind without notifying the parent. If you're not a hands-on, in-your-face type of parent, or socially known...your child will be left behind. Sad but true in my opinion and experience.

My child was not at this school for very long and with good reason. There was hardly any notice sent home when there were other functions or events going on at school. The teacher my child had seemed very nice, but talked down to parents like we were children too. When concerns were shared, they were ignored. The reading /library program is a joke as well as math. The previous school my child attended was almost a full year more advanced than when my child attended this school.

Kudos to the staff and administration of Daly Elementary. The veteran staff is comprised of master teachers all working for the best of the child!

This school employees some dedicated, wonderful teachers and does have resources and potential to be a great school. However, it is under direction of new administrator in the past few years and that has been detrimental to the school and, most importantly, the students. Students with disabilities suffer most specifically and consistently, however. Parents sharing concerns in parent support groups state a fear of retribution against thier child based on past experience and/or the experience of others, and so choose to keep quiet. It can be a good school....but a parent must be very strong, proactive, listen to your child, question and/or research everything you are told by the administrator(s)
