Safety at this school has rapidly decreased over the last 2 years before this post. Police have frequently been at the school, and there have been instances at this school of poor safety. This past year alone - a student was been hospitalized after a fight, and multiple threats were made. That's just what I can find in the news and remember off the top of my head! Academically, it's fine but you really should take safety into consideration.

if i could go back and not have my high school experience be through quince orchard i would. i truly do not understand why this school only cares about theirs athletes. they push things off until the last second and just expect the student to run with it and it is a complete waste of the student’s time and the schools. me personally i’ve been in summer EVERY SINGLE SUMMER throughout high school and every year around mid way through 3rd quarter my mom would come in to have my 504 meeting which they would then inform her of the 2 classes i now have to take over the summer because of something from the YEAR BEFORE. i’ve been DROWNING in spanish work for 3 months because they decided to wait until LAST FREAKING SECOND AGAIN to “take care of the problem” when this “problem” could have been taken care of at the beginning of the year or any other time through the ENTIRE YEAR that i was to admin and counseling about this.

This elementary school provides an excellent learning environment with dedicated, tenured teachers who bring experience and stability to the classroom. The school’s management is generally effective, fostering a positive and well-organized atmosphere. The facilities are well-maintained and in good condition, creating a comfortable space for students to learn and grow. Additionally, the school boasts a diverse student body, promoting inclusivity and cultural awareness. Most importantly, I always felt that my children were safe here, thanks to the school’s strong emphasis on security and student well-being. Overall, a great choice for families seeking a supportive and high-quality educational experience.
