Hampton Park

Wonderful school with amazing teachers and the best principal. We relocated to the area and have been so happy with Genet. The PTO is active and brings some wonderful events. The teachers are so responsive and clearly love what they are doing. Genet is the ESL school for the district and so there is great diversity. Would highly recommend!

A wonderful school with a great staff

Find another school for the sake of your child and yourself. There is better education on YouTube than here. They do not take discipline and bullying seriously. Save your child the horror and abuse (mental, emotional and physical) they will go through and maintain your sanity. The teachers will not do anything but tell your kids to ignore and over look them being bullied, the assistant principle will just butter you up so you can go home, you’ll never see the principal and let’s not even mention the superintendent that is technically nonexistent until court is mentioned and one of his employee’s says something.

I debated quite a long time about whether I should write a review about our experience at Woodland Hill (WH). After talking to so many other parents that experienced and are experiencing similar issues as we did. I would feel remiss to not help another family trying to make a difficult decision to either put in or remove their child from WH.They do not give you a good idea where your child is academically. There are very few points of contact from the teachers. They send home 2 very vague progress reports a year with "WH language" by which I mean they tend to use words that are very neutral or ambiguous. The 2 parent teacher conferences throughout the year are very short, and there is little time to discuss. When I was able to meet with the teacher, they would revert to a thing my child said which seemed to divert any attention from the teacher. Every meeting we had they said the same thing, anything else they said was generic and neutral. Multiple parents that I have spoken with that left the school were astonished about how far their child was behind. They were embarrassed to not have noticed it and had to hire tutors. More importantly. There is a MAJOR BULLYING PROBLEM. The concerns that I had brought up to the teachers were about bullying and not academics. Again, these concerns were brushed off with generic language like talking to a politician. We were assured that a specialist was going through every class and urged to wait for that to happen. It was months before that specialist got to our classroom, and nothing changed. Several parents have contacted us with the same issue, asking to get together so that our children can play so they can feel better after being bullied all day in school. For two years my child told me when he walked into the school that he felt "empty inside". They would come home and tell us that it was the worst year of their life. They saw a child from WH and literally ran and hid because of how they had been treated. You can see the school trying to bring in faculty to address this problem. Ironically from my experience, the faculty that were tasked with this were the same faculty that clearly had no experience in child education and were the very faculty that made my child afraid and uncomfortable to walk into the school daily.Leaving the school was the best decision we ever made for our child, and they are finally healing from the years of turmoil by attending there.

Holy Spirit is an EXCELLENT school............... 5 stars for sure!!!! We are very happy with the education our girls receive....... The teachers and staff are super...........
