9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe moved out of this district specifically because of the terrible experience our kids had at this school. The community is not friendly. Few of the parents seem to enjoy their lives or want to be friends with other families. There is a lot of bullying and the staff doesn't do anything about it. They blame the children for not reporting it sooner and then look the other way. Kids are afraid to report bullying because the only consequence of reporting it is getting picked on further. Most of all, our kids did not learn very much at this school. It was a huge disappointment. Our kids have learned so much more and are so much happier at their new school in the SF Bay area.Parent Review1y ago - Louis Pasteur Fundamental Middle School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school seriously needs to re-evaluate how their staff treats student. It's very obvious that certain students get singled out and spoken to in a rude, dismissive, and even demeaning way, while others are treated with patience and respect. They have a toxic environment where kids feel targeted too. I would not recommend this school at all.Parent Review8mo ago
