Tumwater Hill Elementary School
By far the worst school never had homework in 1st or 2nd grade for my child and when daughter attended All day kindergarten it was a complete waste of money. We are military and from Washington and I was unimpressed with this school. It was a joke and they lost my son in first grade for 45 min. and never contacted me I found out at the end of the day when my son had a hard day still. I do not have a troubled son because he is excelling in our new state, as for my daughter she reads in first grade now at a 3.5 grade level and I was told last year when she was in kindergarten at this school she needed title I program for reading. This school is a horrible school WOULD NOT RECOMMEND. Also, if you want protection between losing a child and not having locked doors around the school anyone can walk into this school. I told them I came from the back they said oh yah not all doors are locked. Anyone can enter from anywhere...how sad!
