This is a community that ALWAYS pulls together when someone needs help or support, such as with the recent & sudden loss of athlete Tyson Wacker. Sometimes folks from bigger schools throw shade because even with quadruple our population, they cannot compete with us. We have some excellent teachers, including Ms. Crystal Jackson, Mr. Fitch, Mrs. Chrasta and Mr. O'Brien. We have excellent coaches, such as Greg Grandell, who has led our football teams to championships several times, and O'Brien doing the same with Varsity boys basketball. Yes, it's off the beaten path a little bit.... but there's nothing like a football game out at "The Pasture" with the stadium lights shining, cowbells ringing and the pink/purple sun setting over the lit-up scoreboard. It's a special place! Many, many wonderful people come out of this school, and with good reason. Go Eagles!!

I enrolled my severely autistic, nonverbal son into this school worried about how he'd be treated,…read moreand unfortunately, my worst fears came true. For years, we endured an unsafe and hostile environment, not just for him, but for me as a parent advocating for his rights. On my son's very first day, I witnessed a special needs student punch another, and instead of stepping in to de-escalate, the teacher simply placed the child back in line right next to the student he hit. It was a red flag, especially for a school with vulnerable children who may not be able to speak up. My son is one of them. Despite repeated requests and documented concerns including eloping from class, self-injurious behavior like him banging his head on the floor and walls or him smashing his toes against the ground until they bleed as well as an inability to understand dangers like traffic, bodies of water etc. the school denied him a one-on-one aide. This was a direct violation of his right to FAPE. The school even told me that a 1:1 wouldn't even help my special needs child.. Something no special needs parent who understands the concept and benefits of their child having a one on one paraprofessional during school hours would accept. After raising these concerns over many occasions I began experiencing retaliation. Staff began targeting me including glaring at me in in a hateful manner during IEP meetings, forcing me to resort to IEP meetings over the phone out of discomfort of staff intentionally trying to intimidate me, pulling up beside me in their car making inappropriate gestures to me in front of my children, refusing to allow me on school campus at pick up time out of spite while allowing others in and gossiping about me to other staff right in front of my face. When I confronted them or reported the behavior to the principal, nothing changed. The same staff remain employed there to this day despite multiple reports being made involving the same employees. Also, in kindergarten, my child with special needs who is also non-verbal began coming home with frequent unexplained bruises that would at times cover his entire body. His whole demeanor was changing. I documented all the bruising as well as his new behaviors. When I came to them with my concerns, the school responded by calling CPS on me rather than investigating what was happening on their watch. In 2023 a teachers aide witnessed on multiple occasions my son's (at the time) teacher Tyler Lee, putting his hands on the special needs children as well as being emotionally and verbally abusive towards them. The teachers aide felt it was necessary to inform a parent of one of the children affected by the teachers actions regardless of "school policy". When the cops were called the school said that they would "handle it internally". The teacher aid who told on the abusive teacher ended up having to leave the school and the teacher who was abusing the children was never arrested. The parents of children in that classroom were never properly informed of the abuse and was given a letter saying that the kids will be getting a new teacher. We only learned of the athis through the News Channel 7 article that can still be found on Google search (Former staff member says they witnessed abuse at Meadow Lane Elementary). I hope others read this and think twice before sending their special needs child to Meadow Lane.

My grandson is in Kindergarten this year and the second day of school the teacher was calling my son at work to say he didn't listen at group time or want to sit on the carpet. These are children that are barley 5 years old. What happened to teaching them what the rules are and helping them be successful? Since then, he has been sent to the office numerous times for ridiculous stuff. The teacher is old school and doesn't know that times have changed and so have the children. Many children now days need lots of reminders and lots of positive. This school and the teacher we have to deal with is all NEGATIVE!! Time to look for a new place for my grandson to be successful.
