I have been attending this school since my sophomore year, and honestly this is the worst school I had ever went to. I wanted to give it a below average due to the hardworking teachers, but I feel like that will not help anyone who is looking for an honest review. During testing days, whoever was in charge of testing told me that I had to take an Algebra I test despite taking one and passing it in my other school. The math classes are a wreck just like any other American public school. For an assignment, my other classmates and I went to a class where there were a bunch of foreign students who spoke little English. I only saw one teacher teaching the class of students who came from different parts of the world. I am not sure how effective their teaching was. The new school nurse knows nothing about privacy. I was in a rush and my stomach was in pain, so I asked the nurse is I could use the bathroom. I could not and she asked if I pooped right in front of two students. The guidance councilor said I was missing a class during my 2nd semester Freshman year. I was then put into another history class.

Oh boy!!! (Says in cute kawaii voice) I love~! the!! um~ uh~~~ the anime club!! tehee.. KYS!!!! (keep yourself safe!) the special needs classes are perfect for me!! my parents beat me occasionally and I love this!!! 5 Stars!!

It’s important to note that there is a new Principal at Park Lodge Elementary. I’ve read several reviews about someone named Mrs. Muzzulo, that sound terrible, but she is no longer there. The new principal, Mrs. DeShields, is wonderful. I’ve spoken to her several times, and she is always positive and, I think, does her best for the students. My daughter says the she even drops by the classroom occasionally to have lunch (covid year, the kids ate in the classroom) or just say hello. The teachers there are absolutely amazing. Every single one I’ve interacted with have been kind, supportive, attentive, and genuinely interested in what is best for every student. During virtual learning I’ve overheard the classes at times, and I’m so impressed with how patient, and effective they’ve been throughout this stressful year. During in person days (hybrid) every teacher I encountered during drop off and pick up, knew my child’s name, and they always had a smile on their face and a kind word.My child has never had a problem with bullying. She considers all of her classmates to be her best friends. I would definitely recommend this school to everyone.

We were excited our daughter made it into this school as her teachers had recommended it for her. Shortly after her first month she said she was 'gender fluid'. When asked what that meant she simply replied that what she had been told by her teachers. I think we have more pressing issues in our schools then teacher telling our children such things. Can we not just let them be children??
