What school district is Matzke Elementary School part of?
Matzke is focused on rating and not on students overall wellbeing. Very disappointed in the direction the school has gone. Music and Art have students running laps becuase school shortened large group, so kids miss out a whole day of either of those, and recess was reduced to less than 15 minutes in a 7 hr day. Teachers care but can only do so much given the direction that the school administration is pushing the school.
