Sadly, this school put my child with special needs in danger and then completely abandoned her. This was our home district and we were happy to get my children into what we thought was a kind and inclusive school community. The problem at Miles wasn't the teachers, they are caring and creative, the problem is poor resources and ineffective and inflexible administration. The district will try to get out of paying anything they can for students with special needs. I had a letter documenting my child's need for an aide from her developmental pediatrician and they had the data from the school showing she clearly needed 1:1 support but they still would not provide it due to the cost. When my 5 year old got away from her teacher who was in charge of a whole kindergarten class and ran into a busy street they finally recognized that she needed some aide support. That was several months into the year when she had already been endangered by their reckless policies. Then when school went to online only in March 2020 and my 6 year old child with special needs could not learn that way, admin just gave up and refused to educate her. They would not bring her in for tutoring or any services, nothing, even though her special ed teacher recognized that she could not learn online and wanted to teach her in person and felt she could do it safely, admin refused and completely abandoned her. The school has remained shuttered for an entire year now, 12 months, to students who desperately needed in person education, what a travesty, I feel terribly for any students stuck in TUSD who needed in person education and have list out on so much. I am so incredibly thankful we got our kids into CFSD, they are doing an excellent job educating all children safely even during a challenging year and are a much more welcoming and inclusive community!

Personally, I absolutely love Tully! My children have always felt welcomed, supported, and genuinely cared for by the teachers and staff. We transferred to Tully from another school in our area, and the difference has been incredible.I would much rather drive a longer distance each day to give my children an environment where they feel safe, valued, and cared for. Our previous school was an extremely difficult experience for our family, and finding Tully truly felt like a saving grace.One of the things I appreciate most about Tully is the smaller class sizes. I feel that this allows teachers to give each student more individual attention and support, while also creating a close-knit and welcoming school community.I highly recommend Tully to anyone looking for a school where their children can feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to succeed. As a parent, knowing that my children are happy, safe, and well cared for makes all the difference. We are proud to be Tully Tigers.
