On the first day My child was left in the wrong classroom all day and left un-notice by school staff until the end of class my daughter was directed to her actual classroom,

I have two kids with either an IEP or 504 and getting support for them is tough. If your kid isn't confident enough to speak up for themselves, they will get talked over and ignored (while still needing help). You and your child also have to be advocating for their accomodations or they don't get them. Events that would benefit from advance notice (band, choir, drama productions, dances, theme weeks) don't get communicated timely. This places a hardship on families who have to rearrange schedules last minute to attend/participate as well as a financial hardship for last minute purchases. The only redeeming quality of this school are some of the teachers go above and beyond in getting students engaged in what they're working on, letting the kids know they care about them as a person and that they're invested in their growth as a student (and as a person). Every teacher? No.

Patience is a virtue. I have two daughters who are English experts enrolled in this school. For the first Primary years of school (K-3) it is expected that the English will not be the primary focus (thus the Dual Language program). Students who's 1st language is English need to gain a firm grasp on the new language they are learning (in order to learn fluency). Yes, tests done in English may show the grade scores as lower, BUT the English speaking students will develop much quicker in the Upper grades as they progress rapidly in their 1st language, English. It is an 8 year commitment to bringing your child to complete Spanish/English fluency. I believe that Dual language schools should not be tested in a State Standard way. Immersion schools should develop a different type of Universal Bi-lingual Test in order to demonstrate that the program is not failing.... It is in fact progressing, beyond one language. I recommend this school if you want your child to gain knowledge beyond one language. The commitment involves the parent being supportive to the school, teachers, students, other parents, and most importantly to their own child's new embarkment of dual language proficiency.
