Pasadena ESP Plan in Canyon at The Ranch by K Hovnanian Homes
Rancho Cordova, CA 95742

My experience here in albiani has been horrible. Throughout the year there have been many fights as the security guards, principal, and vice principals fail to do anything about it. I know many people harmed due to this. Additionally, the teaching here isn’t great either. The teachers are very disrespectful they make learning insufferable. They expect us to teach ourselves. They just give us our books snd expect us to know everything. This school fails to even maintain students mental health. I know many people who done bad things to themselves even doing the unthinkable. Overall, this school is not safe for students at all and fail to provide them knowledge, support, and guidance

This school pretends like it a safe learning environment. They lie. There are so many incidents of bullying, racism as well as violence. Most parents are pulling their kids out and I do not blame them. This school needs to do better. This is a serious issue and isn’t being taken seriously. Really PGHS do better.

I am extremely disappointed with my child's experience at this school. Unfortunately, the administration especially the principal, Mr. Hawk has failed to provide a safe and supportive environment for students. After many years in his position, it is clear that he is not up to date with modern anti-bullying practices and does not take these issues seriously.My child was repeatedly subjected to bullying, including being called offensive names and experiencing clear discrimination. Despite bringing these concerns forward, the situation was minimized rather than properly addressed. There was a clear lack of incident reporting and accountability, and no meaningful effort was made to protect my child. In fact, the school refused to move the student responsible for the bullying out of her class, forcing me to make the difficult decision to transfer my child to a private school.Additionally, my child's photo was excluded from the yearbook, which only added to the feeling of exclusion and discrimination. The school environment overall feels overcrowded, and the quality of education does not feel advanced or enriching. There are very few after-school activities, and mental health services are not proactive or supportive when students need them most.To be honest, these issues reflect broader problems within the school district as a whole. There appears to be a lack of oversight, accountability, and commitment to student safety and well-being at the district level as well.This school has serious issues with how bullying is handled across the board, and leadership does not seem willing to acknowledge or address these problems. I cannot recommend this school to any parent who values their child's safety, well-being, and educational growth.
