    "I have had a lot of bad experiences at this school. My son started 2nd grade and now will be going to 6th grade and just last year I met the principle. She never seems to be involved. This school year there is another principle assigned and Dr Johnson won't be there either and am very happy about that. My son was accused of always being the bad guy. Other kids would bully my son and ALL the staff at Luke never took the the time to hear my son's part of the story. The principle and Dr Johnson would send my son home for days at a time. I don't think this is the way to teach a kid a lesson. He needs to get educated. This school year 2012-2013 my son will be attending Dysart elementary. Hope it goes well for him. My son is sooo smart that he needs to be challenged. All the teachers at Luke tagged my son as being a bully. Luke has horrible food and it's true they serve pizza 5x a week. My son says the oil from the pizza drips so much."

    "I am extremely disappointed with this school. The teachers are OKAY but the administration is a joke. The bullying policy in pretty much completely ignored. The smaller children get bullied but the older kids and no one does anything about it. Many people I know, including myself have confronted Dr. Johnson who is in charge of discipline and have literally been told "kids will be kids" which is simply unacceptable. The school also serves pizza 5 days a week which I think is just terrible! We will be sending our children elsewhere next year!"

    "My son used to go Luke Elementary. It has (1) Excellent teachers who are enthusiastic, responsible, and accessible. They give parents prompt responses when we try to access. They have clear educational goals and know the benefit of positive enforcement method. (2)Helpful school staffs who are always parents/customer oriented and posses great sense of humor (plus friendly smile.) Luke Elementary School is definitely a great school. Then, what makes this school "rate 6"? In my opinion, it probably needs more parental involvement. Government cut educational budget and Luke is not an exception for craving the fund. Unfortunately, education is not free. Especially, if we want to give our children a good quality education, we need to make an investment. Recently, I see a "box top" collection box in the Luke AFB commissary entrance. if each parent does something he/she can do (like this box top example,) this school's will be able to adopt more high quality educational program and its rate will be dramatically improved."

    "When our children attended here(2008-2010) there was problems from the top all the way down. Bullying was a big problem, even coming from some of the teachers that crossed my kids path. I requested their teachers and they were great! They took the time needed for my kids and we talked often about progress. If you are military and Vice Principle Johnson is still there be aware that he is ret. and is friends with some "top" people on base and will use that to his distruction. (Trying to get your unit commandors info. to get you from the work side of things) This is what happened to us when I stood up to them and put in complaints about them with the district. We were smart though...was done on advice from my husbands chain of command. This was the worst experience I have ever had with a school. As for my kids they have now been active about speaking out against bullys and other things they went through at this school. They are loving there new school and even though they are about 2 grade levels behind in just about everything due to different standards and other factors they are holding their own. I would reccomand Connections Academy if you are stuck in that area."

    "PART 2 Mrs Suarez is new to the school n you can so tell. She came from a totally different district, is just what the kids need if they are lucky enough to be into her class. She goes out of her way to help the students. She is there early n tutors. She gives assignments that other teachers dont have to in order to push and challenge students. I was sad that I had to remove my kids from her class as they loved her! My reason for writing this is hopefully if u r able to take your kids some where else DO IT if not as I know many have no other choice, just be involved. Dont ever think the teachers are always telling the truth or right believe your kid. listen to them as they know and see all. Again I worked inside Luke, I was a parent and I volunteered for MANY years... after 3 years at this school I had seen and heard enough. Also the office staff are a joke. They sit and use the internet for personal use, they are always having parties and all in the lunch room, they gossip SO MUCH you have no idea. They talk about parents and kids to others n they just dont know how to run a school. The principal ought to work in a jail or prison n stop running this ELEMENTARY SCHOOL like one!"
