No la recomiendo el día del grado no nos dejaron entrar en la escuela

This school only caters to the Hispanic/Latin origin. Other ethnic backgrounds are made to feel unwelcomed by staff, administrators, and even students. I’ve addressed my concerns of targeted discrimination and harassment but my concerns fall on deaf ears.

This school was a very upsetting and concerning experience for my child. My child would come home sad and upset and was no longer the same kid he used to be. There were times when he came home with bruises, scratches all over his body, and dirty clothes. I was also concerned because he wasn’t being given lunch and was kept in a dark room.Whenever we went to speak with the office staff or teachers about what was happening, they would tell us that the injuries were caused by other students. The principal at the time would not even come out to speak with us. The office staff and teachers would avoid talking to me or explaining what was going on, even though I felt like they all knew what was happening.What concerns me even more is that this did not seem to be happening only to my child. I heard similar concerns from other families whose children have disabilities.This school was a horrible and heartbreaking experience for our family. If you are considering sending your child here, especially if your child has a disability, please pay close attention to any changes in their behavior and regularly check on how they are being treated. As parents, we have to stay alert and advocate for our children when something doesn’t feel right

This school has ruined my mental health. Parents are willing to put themselves into debt to take their children there. It may be because of how this school describes themselves. they tell parents "it will save your childs life". Little do they know that it does the opposite. Our mindset in just about everything has been butchered because of this place. We are expected to be so hard on ourselves. They get mad at us for a 98% on an exam. They tell us to "be harder on ourselves". They say "growth mindset is promoted here. Such lies. If only people knew what goes on in our lives because of this school. More like "closed minset".

Our experience at Holy Family was outstanding. The adminstrators and faculty genuinely care about their students and their success. The school promotes a strong sense of community. We would definitely make the same decision again to send our children to Holy Family.
