The newish principal has brought this school down. Poor communication from administrators. Most of the school teachers are great.

this is a family school. the staff and students treat each other like family. they look out for each other. the education is top notch and the teachers and supporting staff are the best.

Great TK program! The teachers appear to enjoy teaching, and my daughter always comes home excited about what she learned and did throughout her day. That’s a win in my book.

My kindergartener took the RUSD school bus to weston everyday. One day she was bullied by two other older boys who went to another school. The bus driver did not see. And the bus camera was not working so it did not catch it according to the superviser of that bus. I demanded to know if these boys were talked to by the principal, teachers, school, etc. I heard only rumors that the boys were talked to by their school principal with no proof—never received an apology letter from the boys, his family, the schools involved, the RUSD school bus transportation services dept, NOTHING, absolutely NOTHING. I took my child to another school and it has been the best choice I’ve ever made. My child is still traumatized today by being bullied on the RUSD bus where the older boys continued to aggressively poke my child’s backpack after crying and told them to “stop!”. They grabbed my child’s birthday crown given from the kindergarten teacher and the boys proceeded to rip it in three parts. I remembered having to tape it together as my child stepped off the bus crying. The male bus driver said nothing to me and drove off which tells me the cluelessness of the abuses that occur and nothing is done about it.

This is my sons 2nd year at Colony Oak. So far we love everything about it. Teachers are great with communicating classroom projects and school activities. There is never a boring week. And to top it off the PFC is amazing!! Always doing so much for our kiddos and the school.

The people at this school are very kind and nice. They all help you when you need it and are always funny. The PFC is one of the best parts they schedule many events such as, jogathon, bmx events swim partys ande more. So over all I wouild rate this school 10/10 becasue it is a top tier school maybe in the entire state and could compete with many other schools around the globe.
