We are no longer at this school. My daughter attended k-2. At first I thought it was ok. It progressively got worse. The teachers are dealing with issues that shouldn't even be happening on campus. The demographic is a problem unfortunately. Because the staff is dealing with kids being bullies and disrespectful, the education suffers. We were told my daughter was at grade level before we moved into a better district. Not the case at all. By other school standards she was almost a full grade level behind! This school failed my daughter with learning and safety(verbally and physically). The teachers try their best but it is an uphill battle bc of the circumstances.

This is an awful school. My daughter has a boy in her class that bullies and harasses her and her sister and the school refuses to do anything about it. This boy has caused her physical harm once, calls her and her sister names daily, and flips them off and makes inappropriate gestures at them every day, and yet after this has been brought to the teacher's attention, the principle's attention, and the after school teacher's attention, they have done nothing to protect my daughters. They made him apologize once, and that's it! One of my daughter's complained just the other day to the after school teacher about him harassing her and she just told my daughter that since she is older than him that she just should't listen to him. I have requested to have my daughter switched to a different class and they refuse to because their classes are filled to the max! If something happens to one of my daughters, this school will have a huge lawsuit against them! Along with that, a lot of classes don't have funding for field trips, and there are way too many students per teacher. Do yourself the favor and don't enroll your child here..

My highschool student attended Lime Street during his elementary school career and I found the school excelled in all catergories including teachers, students, staff, parents and PTA. My son and I both formed many great relationships with teachers, staff, and friends that my son still is still involved with.He is a great student that continues to excel and it is do in part to the education that he received at Lime.I now have a first grader that is now attending Lime and I do think the dynamic has changed greatly.I feel that many things have changed including, budgets, standards, parent involvement, and district involvement. I think there is one important thing that many parents who are complaining need to take into account. What is their involvement, before you complain do your part. I think that the number one complaint that I would have would be the lack of parent involvement both at home and school.Take a good hard look in the mirror parents and do your job before you complain about others not doing there jobs. Hold both your children and yourselves accountable.It is not the teachers job or the governments job to raise your children when you are to lazy to do it yourselves.

I wish everyone had the opportunity to see Lime Street from my perspective. Where I sit, I see teachers who are under enormous pressure to implement practices that will enhance student achievement. I see teachers who go above and beyond these implementations to find ways to make student learning fun and memorable. I see students who are worth every last minute spent planning and designing amazing lessons because THEY DESERVE IT! Also, I see parents who are willing to volunteer their time in the classroom, or from home, to help make sure this type of learning is able to continue. Are there problems with Lime Street? Yes. However, it would be nice to get beyond the finger pointing over who is to blame. A child's education stems from many different roots including the parents, teachers, other faculty, administration, and the child. Everyone needs to consider the following: Am I doing my part to guarantee my child and students are successful? If you have questions or concerns, express them! You are the only person able to advocate your ideas and opinions. If you are unhappy you have 2 choices: remain unhappy, or change your circumstances. I'm ready to do my part, are you?
