Creekside Oaks Elementary School
My son started kindergarten last fall. He had some behavioral issues and acted out. He was threatened with police action and suspended. There was no support or consideration for his feelings as part of his behaviour was related to a serious illness of a close family member. We pulled him out of this school in favor of home school. We moved to another district (although we really liked Lincoln as a town) to be out of WPUSD, and our son is now in regular kindergarten. He still has nightmares about his time at this school and is afraid of the police. With the support in his new school he is adjusting and learning to trust his teachers and principal.
