The school teacher or ok depending teacher, for example one of teacher in lower grade will only use laptop for classwork and homework, i.e. no paper and pencil. Which doesn't seem good as writing with hand is one of the skills, children need to learn from beginning. Overall teacher are good and focus on the all round learning. School need to improve on the school nurse, they have multiple temporary nurses, if you kid has some ongoing medical condition it will be challenging with multiple nurse. They are not very accommodating with personal needs and follow blindly from order form ( they won't adopt to parents recommendation), they need everything written in medical order form, and if medical order is too complicated they ask you to get it simplify as nurse would not able to handle it. Generally it becomes too much pressure on kids and parents to handle the ongoing medical conditions for kids school time.

We have absolutely loved Snoqualmie Elementary School (SES). All the staff have been so kind to my kids over the years. They take time to get to know the child and help them strive to be the best learner they can be.

Snoqualmie Elementary School is the model of what an excellent elementary school should be. The teachers and staff are superb and the principal is hands-on, responsive, and caring. The PTSA is very active and puts on great events for students and families. Our child's instructors have been top-notch and our son has really blossomed in his first two years. His teachers have also been very responsive in challenging him in ways that meet his learning level. We live on the ridge and were re-zoned to SES from Cascade View. We could not be happier with the change. SES is without a doubt the premiere elementary school in the district and really sets the standard. The extra mile or two from our house to SES (compared to CVES) is far worth it considering the greater benefits we are receiving from having our kids at SES.

Snoqualmie is a growing town and the Valley itself it constantly changing. We live on Snoqualmie Ridge and always assumed we would go to the local school on the Ridge. With the new change, we were reassigned to Snoqualmie Elementary and could not be happier. Snoqualmie Elementary, the PTSA there, and staff should be the model for how its done - they have it right here. This school is so hands on, cares about the kids and parents, has so many after school activities and family nights. I am giddy with the school and staff. The principal is hands down one of the best in the district. My children are challenged and love going to Snoqualmie Elementary.

Love this school. Have 3 kids and we've been in many schools. This one is the best. Great staff, friendly environment, wonderful principal. Reminds me of how education should be: a fun learning environment.

We cannot say enough good things about this school. Our child is on a IEP program and has blossomed at SES. Every person we have contacted responds quickly. Each and every person on the SES team cares and strives to do right for the kids. They do not look for excuses when encountering challenges - they find solutions. In addition they respect our child's IEP status and do not make excuses for it. They teach children with special needs to leverage their strengths and manage their challenges. They create opportunities for success. This school is about children excelling in their lives.
