Parents , do your kids a favor and don't enroll in this school, as we went through ridiculous mistreatment. I recommend numerous charter schools , especially in Anthem area.

My great niece moved with me. I encouraged her mom to enroll her here as my children had gone to this school. Very unsupportive environment. I’ve never heard of a kindergarten child getting in trouble so much. She is a TAG eligible. Extremely bright. The teacher never liked her. What? Who doesn’t love a bright girl like her. Was it because she’s brown? Then came 1st grade. It wasn’t as bad but again it wasn’t a great experience. She’s now a mile away at another school where there are lots of children of color and she is flourishing. Shame on you Elise Wolff. I didn’t want to believe this as true but there is definitely something going on with colorism at your institution. You don’t support children of color and it’s very sad in 2023. I had to post this because people of color need to be aware.

My kids have all attended Elise Wolff throughout the years. It’s such a great school with great teachers and support staff!

My kids have loved all the teachers at this school. They are getting a good education in a school district that is lacking in many ways. I have been very happy with the education my children have received at Wolff.

Teacher giving grades are not Equal, when Teachers like the kids they will not go by the rules will give higher grades, when Teachers don't kids they will be very aggressive they will go by all grade rules just like my kid in Catalano class, no matter how Hard my kid learns grades only going down.

Save yourself the grief and have your kids attend a school that is at least average ( this whole state lacks good schools) try charter or private. Your kids will be happier somewhere else and so will you as a a parent / guardian. Trust us , we already went through the grief.

Why White students grades are always higher than the other races, this is a completely discriminations. That’s Why I withdrawn my kids out of this school.

This is by far one of the best schools in the valley. When I ask my kids if they like their school their immediate response is they love it. Mrs. Westwood, the rest of the staff, and all of the teachers are all amazing. Everyone cares so much about the kids. Your child isnt just another face in the crowd, they get to know them and who they are as people. Parents are expected to be an active participant in their child's education, but they are by no means expected take the place of the teachers. The school focuses on teaching the kids not just academics, but teaches them about being responsibile for their actions and to have respect for others around them. Thank you so much for all the wonderful memories.

The school seems great until your 5 year old gets accused of damaging a chromebook. Who is in the classrooms assisting these kids help so these devices are well taken care of. I never known to give a kindergartner that much responsibility ! Thinking of transferring my child out it’s always something every week.

At started new school year I have good time communicating with principal, I told her that Steel Chain Link Fence 100 feet high from the ground located at Sunridge Hights PKWY Kids are pushing and leaned on the Steel Chain Link Fence is good there isn’t any incidents but what IF? Principal said will put Staff to supervision but I don’t see that when I pick up my kids, all I see kids are push and leaned on the Steel Chain Link Fence look down and wave to their parents 100 feet below. Hello Principal safety to our kids are highness priority, Thank you!

As a parent I always hope and wish the best putting my kids in this school and received fair and equal to all the kids from the educator, but this school is not what I hoped for some of the teacher not giving enough attention to my kid because the color of the skin, I can tell when teachers are giving very LOW grades to my kids, attention all educator at this school please give enough attention to all the kids! kids they love to learn! Don’t forget CCSD Anti-Racism Policy! Why Asian, Black, and Latino kids Grades are very low? Teachers again please put more attention to the kids and STOP Racism.Giving lower Grades to kids because the teachers are not giving enough attention to individual kids.

I was a little weary about this school at first. I felt that the atmosphere was a bit strict for my daughter. However, as time goes by, I can see that my child is behaving better on a daily basis and i can only thank the teacher for this. Academically, my daughter is moving much faster than she did in her previous school, which was in New York City. I don't spend too much time at the school, but I have no real complaints. My child is learning in leaps and bounds and seems pretty happy. I love that there is a student council and there are organized events for charity. I've not spoken to the Principal, but she seems to be doing a great job. The office staff is very friendly and helpful, a big change from what I've been used to. We walk to school, but I can see the parking situation is horrible for parents who drive. Can't really complain. The school is great.

This school is fantastic. Clearly one of the best in the valley. My daughter excelled there. They have very caring and thorough teachers and an excellent gifted and talented program as well. In the fourth grade, the kids even fly up to Carson City to learn about Nevada for the day. My oldest daughter still talks about that trip a couple years later. Yes, the parking is definitely inconvenient in the afternoons. However, I feel if you are one of the people on this website who is not giving this school 5 stars due to the lack of parking or for that matter even includes parking in your decision matrix for choosing a school for your child's education, then please go live somewhere else.
