First year here and already Lovin it. Better that most schools in area and high disagree with the school score.

As a parent within Central Unified School District, I believe in advocating not only for my own child but for all students who may feel unheard.My experience at Tilley Elementary has left me concerned about how bullying, emotional struggles, and accountability are handled. When students are navigating personal challenges, it is critical that schools respond with consistency, communication, and fairness.I observed patterns where student behavior was addressed, but concerns about peer mistreatment were not communicated back with clarity or follow up. When bullying is reported, families deserve transparency and reassurance that appropriate steps are taken. Consistency in discipline matters. Accountability should be applied evenly across the board, not selectively.There were also instances where promised follow up from the Principle did not occur, and promised calls requesting updates were not returned. Communication is a vital part of trust between families and schools. Without it, parents are left feeling unheard.Mental health concerns in elementary age students are serious and require proactive support. When students express emotional distress, schools should respond with urgency and balanced intervention.There are educators at the school who genuinely care, and I appreciate those individuals. However, overall leadership and systems around bullying response, communication, and equitable accountability need improvement.Every child deserves to feel safe, supported, and treated fairly.
