Poor experience. I had a better experience in a much poorer school district. Many factors. The teachers try but so many are new and have little experience that there is a problem in constructive discipline and ends up being screaming at kids. This happened several times throughout the year and my wife and I were told to discuss it with the teacher. The teachers either denied having done it, or said that is the way the world operates. When we requested a different teacher, we were given the run around and told it is against policy. Our child with a disability was not given any type of help. Our two other children hated going to school. Thank heavens two of our three kids are out of the school. The third we are on a waiting list for a charter.

I have had the opportunity to see Northeast go through a tremendous amount of change over the last two years. While I certainly could not have rated the school highly last year, it is with absolute sincerity that I say there is no other school that I would rather be at this year. The pains of changing over a staff and administration can be great, but the new administration of Kara Tidemann and Katie Sodara-Jensen have truly had an immediate impact in turning NE into a school that values children, teachers, and parents, and that is committed to creating an environment in which every child succeeds.

Northeast is a great neighborhood school. The new principal, Kara Tidemann is wonderful and very caring. I am shocked and saddened by the awful review one parent has reported. I am in contact with Kara on a regular basis and I've seen that she and her staff are incredible. Keep up the good work!Also to note, the previous principal was not a good fit for this school. There is no need to outline specific details however, he was not the person described by the previous reviewer. Ask any parent who had a student here in 2015-16.

NE is a school I visit often………and, as a former educator, I know of depth of the commitment I see and feel from the teaching staff and the school's leader, Mr. Van Auken. His transition to becoming Principal of NE was not easy (it's not easy for any new Principal) but he soon learned the do's and don't's about leadership and its role within the wider community. It's certainly remains a great school with a great leader. Well done, Mr. Van Auken, well done NE teaching staff! Lucky students!
