Having been a proud attendee of Wayne Van Horn Elementary School and a resident of the local community for over 20 years, I can wholeheartedly affirm the exceptional quality of education and nurturing environment this school offers. The dedicated staff and teachers at Wayne Van Horn have consistently demonstrated a deep commitment to fostering both academic excellence and personal growth in their students. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed to cater to diverse learning styles, ensuring that each student receives the attention and resources they need to thrive. Furthermore, the school's emphasis on inclusivity and community involvement has greatly contributed to a vibrant and supportive atmosphere. As an alumnus, I am continually impressed by the school's ongoing efforts to adapt and improve, ensuring that it remains a cornerstone of our community. Wayne Van Horn Elementary is more than just a school; it's a place where young minds are nurtured to become the leaders and innovators of tomorrow.

This school is a terrible place. I had my daughter go here for her 7 grade year and she would come home all bruised and scratched. She always said that when he got bullied and told the teachers all they did was make him sign a paper and that was it. My daughter almost lulled herself and said that the school made her feel more horrible than she already did. And when she talked to the counselors they made a big deal and checked her bag. She told me that the PE teachers were both mean. She said they made her cry by calling her useless. She also told me they still made her run even though many kids fell and hurt themselves.

BHS is an amazing high school that has something for everyone. My eldest daughter graduated last year and had an amazing experience getting involved in clubs and academics along with making lasting friendships. A plethora of clubs are offered along with many other classes, such as ceramics, fashion, home economics, and wood/metal shop. The gate/honors program is incredible with caring/committed teachers. We love BHS! It's the best in Bakersfield.
