"The commute out of the area is painful and often puts you in dangerous conditions. The potholes are very large and the industrial area gives permission to unlawful driving. Freeways are close but the various roads out are sketchy."

ZERO STARS.... This is not a safe school for children. My grandaughter is getting bullied on the playground by the same boy - three times so far, and nothing is being done to prevent her from harm. She was hit in the face by him and now has a bruise on her face and the next day he attacked her again. The principal is not very reactive about this situation but if it were her child I'm sure she would not tolerate this action. Children should learn to keep their hands to themselves. What is a parent to do when you are not getting the necessary response and to feel assured that your child is going to school to learn and should not fear that there will be any unnecessary roughness from another student and should not have to constantly look over her shoulder.
