I have 2 children attending here & our experience has been extremely disappointing.1 major issue involved report cards & grading errors. The school previously provided printed report cards during conferences, but suddenly stopped & insisted everything had to be viewed online. When I explained ParentVUE was not generating the actual report card page, only grade breakdowns, front office staff were rude & dismissive, even telling me it was a “personal problem.” After contacting the district, I was informed I absolutely had the right to request a printed report card.When the school finally printed one, I noticed a 2nd quarter D that should not have been there. I keep all records & retrieved the original report card showing the correct grade. The teacher admitted through ParentVUE that it was a mistake & apologized but the office refused to fix it, saying it was “too late” & “not a big deal” Only after I went directly to the district with proof & teacher messages was the error corrected.Bullying & student safety have also been major concerns. My daughter experienced ongoing bullying that staff failed to properly address despite multiple reports. A counselor even dismissed concerns by asking if she had “tried ignoring it.” The bullying escalated to harassment at school events & another student bringing an avocado to school & chasing my daughter with it after learning she had a severe avocado allergy. The school never properly followed up regarding this incident.There was also an ongoing issue with a student attempting to kiss my children & other students during extended day. My children repeatedly asked him to stop, they reported it & I personally called to complain. The student’s grandmother worked there - present during the times he did this, yet administration still failed to properly intervene.My son also experienced bullying, including another student threatening to get a gun & kill him. Students saying he was too white, his sister cant be his sisters & tried to dare him to kiss her. Again, little to nothing was done.1 has IEP - did not give service minutes for 3 months! Communication with teachers & administration has been extremely poor. My daughter’s teacher often took weeks or months to respond, if he responded at all.Overall, this school has shown a lack of accountability, poor communication, failure to protect students & no urgency regarding serious concerns. I am now looking to transfer my children elsewhere.
