If your child is special needs...this is not the right school...we toughed it out for 4 years. In my opinion, the principal lacks the knowledge and strength to deal with these kids in a way that does not damage their self esteem. Most of the teachers were great, but the poor leadership is taking it's toll. The playground lacks enough supervision. The parents are great, and I will miss them. I was at the school several times a day and taught in the art program...my opinion is not based on only my kids.

We moved into the Eastmoreland Neighborhood so our child could attend Duniway. Huge mistake we are paying dearly for. We transfered to another school. Duniway Elem has an active wealthy foundation that drives it reputation, but bullying, crass behavior and cussing on the playground are the norm. In the classroom, it's the same rote learning and uninspired teachers you'll find at any PPS.

Many people love Duniway and find it to be an excellent school. Our experience has been otherwise- we see an 'ok' school with an excellent reputation. We see a lot of rote learning, uninspired lesson ideas and teachers who do not seem to enjoy what they do. There is not a lot of inquiry or investigation. It may be our classroom only, but that sure shapes our perspective on the whole school! There is music, which is fantastic. Art exists only because parents teach it. While we love this neighborhood and the community, we have been sadly dissapointed in the school.

Was the very best school that I found in Portland. I wish my Children still went here. It changed their lives.
