I attended Banks, my children and grandchildren have attended, as well. The staff cares about the children. You have one in every grade anywhere you go seemingly less caring or nurturing; however, as a whole we've all had wonderful experiences with the teachers and staff. We are grateful to have such a great school in our community.

Not a great choice for special needs students. Much too quick to discipline rather than provide any therapeutic intervention. Very little support or follow-through in IEP.

Lesson plan is no existent for my fourth grader. School is in the middle of no-where and the teachers seem to define a closed society that doesn not allow for outside intervention. Also, Why are only one star reviews on this site taken down. This should be allowable for all reviews not just the 3 and 4 star ones. I will hope that my review will stay up.

My son has been at Banks from k-5th. My son and I have been happy with all of his teachers. They are helpful, caring and welcome parental involvment. My son has been successful and he is now in AIG classes. I hate that we must transfer to another school.

I have a son in kindergarten. I have been very please with his teacher this year. He is learning SO much! When I drop him I off feel safe in leaving him and for me that is a major plus.
