The assistant principal Tyler Walker seemed more interested in his title and his truck. Questionable motives
10/10/2018
I absolutely love this school. My children go out of district and I drive them to school each morning just because we were so impressed with the school. The staff mmembers are amazing and they truly care about the needs of each and every child

I am very impressed with this school. Throughout the years, I have seen very dedicated staff members. They differentiate instruction based on what your child needs. They also have many resources for students who are struggling. They work hard to reach every child no matter their circumstances.

Upward is such a wonderful school. Every teacher that I have come in contact with have been really great and the Principal is so dedicated and involved. I feel extremely lucky that both of my children attend this school.
