Ninety-Fifth Street School in West Allis, Wisconsin

“Ninety-Fifth Street Elementary School is loved for the caring people and quality education that it offers. As we face change, we will do so with parents, students and staff ready to pitch in and do the work of many. We know that it really does take a community to educate a child, and we do that daily. We love it because it is a place 'Where everyone learns!'”

“My son just completed his first year at this school. I love the school, the staff is great! Very friendly. The school has a great way of helping the kids by giving them positive encouragement. The principal, Mr. Lawrence is very visible. School spirit is high, I go to the school on Fridays and see alot of the kids in the school t-shirts. My son joined one of the soccer teams and they were undefeated! The PTA has wonderful events and activities for the families and I have seen huge turnouts to these events.”

“My child recently started attending the school's Early Childhood Program and he enjoys it immensely. He loves his teacher and para as well as his classmates! As a parent I am so pleased with the school. It's high test scores prove to me that 1) the teachers and admin staff are well aware of what works for the children and 2) they teach the children at each one's individual ability (successfully). My husband and I are hoping to get our other child in the school as well because we are so confident that she will thrive at this school. Kudos to Mr. Lawrence and his staff for making 95th Street School an excellent example for other MPS schools to follow. This facility is certainly a cut above the rest!”

“My son is having a great experience at 95th Street School. When compared to the other 'nighborhood schools', 95th Street really leads the pack in good test scores. The previous principal was very strong and ran a tight, respectful ship. The new principal doesn't seem as in control, nor does he seem to have full respect of his team. There have been some behavioral issues in the 4th and 5th grades for which all the boys in both grades are suffering consequences as opposed to punishing the offenders according to the policy handbook everyone signed and agreed to at the beginning of the year. That said, my child is in a younger grade and has a marvelous teacher who works hard to challenge him as well as provides a structured, comfortable learning environment. MPS is lucky to have such a school in the area. Don't mess it up!”

“My child is thriving at 95th Street School! Her teachers are dedicated and know how to encourage all children to do their best. 95th has a pleasant learning environment. The school is welcoming, and children are comfortable in their surroundings. The school population is highly diverse. There are no major discipline issues. Teachers and staff work hard to make sure that every child is proficient in all subject areas. Parents are active volunteers, and leaders within the School Governance Council and P.T.A. Families are always welcome to visit or assist in the classrooms. The staff is focused on curriculum and effective teaching practices. This has resulted in increased student achievement in all areas. My daughter and I are both very happy with 95th Street School. I am confident that she is receiving an excellent education in a diverse setting, which will provide an strong foundation for future achievements.”
