The parking lot is extremely dangerous for children. There are no lot attendants out there supervising the parking lot. Parents speed and cut off kids that are walking through the parking lot to get a parking spot. They also park in the handicap spots when they no right to park there. My daughter’s first grade teachers don’t communicate with the parents and they let kids disrupt the class with no consequences. My daughters told me that first grade is easier than Kindergarten.

It has been close to a year since my son has been going to this school, we recently moved to Eugene from a relatively more diverse school. As a person of color, I was scared after reading some of the reviews here and I thought I should put in a more "recent" update. The school and staff have been nothing but welcoming and supportive. My son appears to really enjoy school and has made several friends. Academically, he is progressing well. They put him at one level advanced math to accommodate his skills, some places do not have the flexibility. He is also given worksheets, online projects and fun group projects (including coding and 3D printing). The bi-monthly reports and assessments let us know how students are performing academically. There are decent opportunities and clubs for students to engage in (chess, track n field etc). I can't speak for individual cases and capabilities but the school seems to be a good one for middle schoolers.

Daughter likes it, she’sseems to be learning a lot and Sheldon HS is getting her prepared for college. As a parent, I’ve always had good communication with Staff when needed.
