Homes Available Soon Plan in Towns on Main by Holmes Homes, Layton, UT 84041

Overall I believe that Vay view encourages a sense of community between piers and staff. My children enjoy going here and feel that they have friends, are safe, and supported from most of the staff. The teachers we have been with have been really good and supportive. The staff we have worked with are amazing teachers, I feel we have been extremely lucky with this because I have heard some of the worst from other parents particularly in the higher grades. The special Ed department at the school is lacking in my opion, doing the bare minimum to get by and isnt good at keeping you informed about childs progress or overall well-being. I believe maybe this department is just lacking in staff and support. I believe leadership could do much better at being involved and holding the special ed department accountable. I believe leadership could be better informed about working with special ed in general. Asking for extra meetings to go over or to review iep is like pulling teeth. The meetings are extremely unorganized and unprofessional, typically staff is unprepared and I have had countless things said in these meetings that seem unethical, unkind, and use of discomforting verbage. The overall support to include our Spanish speaking students in learning and activities is top teir. If you are looking for diversity, vae view has it and does an extemly good job being alot more inclusive than other schools I have attended. The issues you may face when going to leadership is denial and unwillingness to give you clarification on issues you may be having such as bullying, issues with teachers, issues with policies, and issue with following iep or 504 accommodations. I have been gaslighted, lied to and dismissed more times than I can count. They have a few split classes like 5th and sixth are combined. The school seems packed beyond its capacity. The building itself is run down, bathrooms are dingy, and you really feel like you are walking into the 70s. The school has an outdoor seating area in the center that i wish was utilized more, I wish they woud plant something in the planters and use this as a nice quiet study area, where kids and classrooms could come and go freely. The school councilor is really good checking on students who are struggling as often as needed. Overall the school could use stronger, more involved, and easier to work with leadership. Side note office staff and classroom aids are 10/10. Depending on your students needs this could be a good fit.
