Ignore, cover up issues instead of addressing them. Patronizing, disrespectful treat parents with distrust instead of partnership. And the school choose to ignore the problem. The people are nice, unless you confront their poor behaviors. Which of course teaches children unhealthy way of dealing with differences as well as does not promote improvement to culture or education.

The teachers are great and the education is awesome here! Most of the students are really nice and friendly.

Minnewashta's Spanish Immersion program has been outstanding. My daughter has had a very positive experience both in the English and Spanish. The teachers are engaging and loving. Many teachers are from Spanish speaking countries giving the children a very well rounded and real experience. Their kindness extends beyond the school as many teachers initiate cultural experiences outside of the class room. I would highly recommend Minnewashta Elementary School.
