4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI was once a student at Lyons Elementary, and now I have children attending the school. Unfortunately, the environment does not feel the same as it once did.I’ve noticed what seems to be a very passive approach from the current principal, Ms. Arocha, when it comes to addressing concerns such as bullying and staff conduct. There have also been ongoing issues with certain non-teaching staff overstepping their roles, concerns about inappropriate behavior on school grounds, and situations involving parking and crossing guard enforcement that feel excessive and unprofessional.As a parent and former student, I simply want to see the school provide a safer, more structured, and more supportive environment for the children and families in the communityParent Review1mo ago - Sheridan Road
