This "HIGH SCHOOL" is supposed to help you in being college ready, yet it's staff and administration runs the place as if it were a middle school. With all do respect I have transferred through many high schools and for this to be the one my parents chose for me to stay in, it is clearly the worst. I felt as if nobody gave a rats ass, about helping me get opportunities for my future. In conclusion of all this, GROW UP and DO YOUR JOB.

There's a lot of bullying and harassment that occurs in this school. Students will often be doing pranks, fighting in restrooms, or instigate conflicts with school staff (Some cases lead to physical altercations). So, it's not really a safe environment for vulnerable kids.

Garcia Elementary school offers the best education for children. Students not only learn the skills needed as required by the curriculum but in depth and more relevant research based inquiries are undertaken. Students learn to have connections with what they are learning in school to that of the real world. This is a great place where academics and values intertwine. Teachers and staff are dedicated and committed. I just love how they set high expectations for the kids and how they engage their students to accomplish such expectations!
