My two older children, daughter and son graduated from Casa Roble Fundamental high school, now my youngest daughter is in her last year at this high school. What can I say about the school where all my children studied... Starting from two women working in the office of the school, who are always very pleasant to meet each person, regardless of whether it is a parent or a student, or other visitors, these positive, polite, very friendly women, like the sun, warm every person who comes to school.The principal, the teachers, the school staff, have always been and are a great blessing to our children. Our children loved this school, the eldest daughter participated in running competitions and won more than once in inter-school city competitions. A lot depends on the right team, in this school everyone is very blessed. For our children and family, this school has been and remains a very good school. This is our last year, my youngest daughter is graduating in June, but only the warmest memories will remain in the memory of my children and our entire family.Not everything is always easy and smooth in life. But this school paved a very good beginning in adult life for all our children. Thank you dear school staff. You have always been and continue to be a great blessing to our family. We love and appreciate you very much. May you continue to be a blessing to future generations of students. Be blessed dear Casa Roble...

I was so excited when my kid started going here, but after two years at this school, I've seen many things that I don't like.The first thing I don't like about the school, is the teachers. Some of them are very rude to the kids and they don't want to deal with bullying. I've volunteered many times in my child's class and have seen the teacher tell the kids, "Go deal with it yourself, my friend. I don't have time for that." Sometimes they don't want to listen first and then decide if they need to interfere or not.Second, the office staff is not friendly at all. They don't welcome you when you enter the office, don't ask if you need help, and if you call the office, they answer you rudely and hang up the phone before you can finish talking.Third, the bathrooms are filthy. They don't clean them very often, and sometimes they run out of toilet paper or paper towels.Fourth, they do money raisers at least twice a year. They say it's for the playground, field trips, and other school needs, but I haven't seen any improvements in the playground. Sometimes, for the field trip, parents need to drive the kids.I wish they would care more about the kids' education and school improvement.

School is not bad for the most part. But they have huge problems when bringing substitutes for certain subjects. Our daughter had a substitute for her math class for almost half of the year all the way to the end of the school year. Our daughter told us there was a problem with one of the electronic test, that there was a software error that affected the test problems, where a lot of the problems had no possible answers with the provided options, for example the answer was a number and the options provided on the multiple choice were only a, b, c and d and no numbers. By consequence her overall mark went from A to B-, she’s a straight A student btw. She talked with the substitute teacher and pointed out the error many times only to get back a “ I’m just a substitute and can’t do anything about it”, we even wrote the school and only got silcence. Seems that some of the substitutes are working for free, just do bare minimum and could care less about the students future. This is unacceptable, to have people like this in charge of the future of this nation to care so little about it, they want these kids to start behaving like adults but then they get ignored like this. It might just be a B- but she worked hard for all her A’s, being cheated like this is detrimental for a kids mental stability specially at this crucial age. All she had gotten from this school is the feeling of exclusion and neglect.
