Tassajara

Before this principal joined a couple years ago, school was amazing. Since the current principal came, school has been on a decline. The front staff is extremely rude. They pretend to be nice to your faces but are extremely mean. They are not helpful at all, would let kids go out alone, if kids go to office to call their parents more than once in a week when school is over, they yell at the kids. Kids don’t feel like they can ask for any help from front desk staff. The principal, even when told about all these issues, does nothing at all. They are nice to kids whose parents give high donations, even if they do anything wrong(bully or hurt others), those kids go free without even being asked to see the principal or apologize. And this has not only been my experience, but so many other parents have been feeling the same. There are only a handful of teachers who actually care about studies.

I have two sons (3rd grade and 5th grade). Both love going to school. Have great teachers who developed good relationship with students and worked with them based on their specific requirements. They have great friends at school. Both stay excited about learning and stay motivated. They get homework regularly and weekly tests. Both play sports during recess with their friends. Teachers are in touch with us over emails and also parent/ teacher meetings. School takes active interest in students development. We are very happy with Hidden Hills.

We went to Creekside from 2012 through 2020. My youngest finished 5th grade just last Spring. Each of my 3 children enjoyed their years at this school and continue to do well at the secondary schools in this district. We moved to the area in 2012 and were pleasantly surprised by the teachers at this school coming from a very rigorous private school in the city. The teachers and staff are truly dedicated to the students and care deeply about their whole development - not just math or reading but they look out for whether your child is developing as a whole - social and emotional development is also very important to them. The community is very supportive and we made lots of friends during our 8 years at the school. We happily volunteered to raise funds to make the school have just about everything they needed. I am very grateful for the many years we went to this school and cannot say enough to praise the teachers.
