Riley Upper Elementary School

A+, in 6 months my daughter will be in Middle School. There is a completely different dynamic in Middle School, I think the slow 2 year immersion in learning different ways of interacting with students will prepare my daughter. The 5 to 6 Upper Elementary is a great way to prep our kids as to what the world will be like. It's not all sunshine and rainbows, but it's not all bullies and buttheads oh, they have been taught to recognize the differences and to speak up when in equality, cruelty, bullying arise. I love Riley, and any imperfections that show up are just like the imperfections that I deal with and everyone deals with in life. We try to do our best.

2 teachers I would like to discuss. Stephanie Pinta and Shanna Ramsey. These are 2 teachers that your child would like. I am a student at Riley and Ms. Pinta is AWESOME!! She never yells, barely even raises her voice! She helps kids with homework fluently, and is always smiling and nice. The Riley staff is a great bunch and Riley is a great school!

Teachers have been great with what they are able to do within state guidelines, thanks Snyder. Buses are a nightmare though. Usually people write reviews when they are angry because they need an outlet, happy people usually just go on with their own business forgetting to do reviews because well they are happy. I believe that is why the "stars" are not higher.

I attended Riley this year and the school is terrible. The cooks are mean and they under cook meat. The teachers don't solve bullying and don't answer questions. The classes are out of control and teachers don't do anything. The building looks like it will collapse. My parents are considering private school because it's so bad. Lastly, teachers will be sexists and talk about God.
