This is my first time to send a child in school in the US.. We were approved for the school of choice program last year since we live outside the district.. I applied for the school of choice because all 3 of my sister's children all grown up and started and finished grade school there.. So far so good.. Me and my 5 year old love the school and the teachers.. She made good friends and playmates.. It's really a very warm and accepting little community for children and families too.. Kids are very well taken care of by the staff.. UNFORTUNATELY, school dropped her out of Transitional Kindergarten ONE MONTH REMAINING of this school year.. I submitted IN WRITING that she had to miss school on specific dates because we had to fly back to the Philippines for my extensive back therapy.. So she missed only 3 weeks of school plus 1 week intercession days.. So I was confident she wasn't going to be dropped out from school because I knew she was going to miss school LESS THAN A MONTH. To my surprise when we came back, THE OFFICE SAID THEY HAD TO DROP HER OUT and I need to re-enroll her to another school in the district where we live.. When I submitted the letter, I WAS NEVER TOLD THAT INTERCESSION BREAKS ARE PART OF THE SCHOOL DAYS..! And I can say there was a failure on the school's end to NOT INFORM A PARENT of that.. I am very frustrated that my daughter suddenly had to stop school because of their FAILURE TO INFORM.. I like the school.. I love the teachers.. I love how it is that it's close by our house.. I'd still send my daughter to Siersma this fall 2019.. That one time incident is the only not so good thing I can say with the school admin..

We attend Siersma as a 'School of Choice' option, meaning we live out of district and choose to attend this school. My daughter is in first grade, and absolutely loves her school! ALL of the staff are wonderful, which is a direct reflection of the great Principal! Siersma is also a year-round school with less of a summer break (about 6 weeks!) which I like, and my daughter likes also. I love the diversity of the students, it exposes my daughter to so many different ethnicities and cultures. Also as a Muslim I love that the school acknowledges this diversity by having a breakfast/lunch program that reflects our dietary requirements (no pork product served!) Overall, Siersma is a great place and I am glad to have chosen this school for my daughter's education.

Siersma is a great neighborhood school with a close community of kids, parents and school staff. My kids love it and we'll be here for the next 5 years.

Teachers are wonderful and caring, there are only 25 kids in each classroom, office staff and administration are very friendly and welcoming.

I truly appreciate the time and effort that the teachers, principal, and PTO have put into making this a great school for my children to learn and me to feel comfortable to visit.
