Horrible I Don’t Recommend This School For No One Everything About This Have Discuss Me In All Type Of Ways And It’s Sad That I Have To Say This But It’s The Truth If You Want Your Child To Succeed I Recommend 100% You Find Them Another School Because This One Is Not It All……..

My son was only in PreK in the Pals program and I was very focused on his class so it is hard for me to speak to the overall experience for children in different grades, but we enjoyed the school. He had the most amazing, supportive, caring, creative, dedicated teacher in Ms. Collins and we are sad to be leaving her this year. I found it easy to get involved as a parent; the Family Center and Parent Resource Leader there are very active and encouraging and welcoming and good at giving reminders, and there are some excited and dedicated parents who run a variety of extra activities for the families and kids that help foster a sense of community. I found some teachers better than others as I interacted with them and visited classrooms as a volunteer. My issues with the school are not really faults of the school and staff itself and is probably consistent across public schools in terms of needing more resources; Ms. Hughes the principal is a good leader and easy to get in touch with and access, but seems stretched thin. The "assistant principal" who was supposed to deal with special needs students is hardly ever there because she has to handle multiple schools, same thing for the nurse. Though I felt my son was extremely well-supported as a child with special needs, and his teacher worked hard to make sure his class was integrated into the culture and activities of the school, I know other parents with kids in other classes who were frustrated with their child's with disabilities' experiences. This is a good school, but involvement and advocacy are key.

My son started here in the 6th grade. Kids bully kids right in front of teachers and staff. The Language the kids use is unbelievable. Kids cusrse at the staff and teachers. More parents should come to school to see their kids behavior. I am sorry I put my child in this type of environment. Police should be on campus everyday and not just at the front desk.

Unfortunately this school keeps getter worse as the years go on. There is absolutely no supervision children are vaping on campus! Fights are a regular. Including adults fighting in front of the children. Staff are not held accountable for the lack of teaching or resources. The school struggles with keeping teachers, that is a sign of poor management. The principal is a joke, sweeps everything under the rug. I agree with another parent who said they have a strict no cell phone policy! Yes it's so the children can't record what is really going on at KJSA. This is not an academy and for it to be so small you would think they would have control of this institution. The teachers barley show up to teach. Ambulance was called due to a child overdosing. A student not only started a fire in the bathroom but also fell through the roof of the bathroom. Oh and if your child is in need of an IEP good luck with that, they will tell you they do not qualify without a proper assessment. Absolutely no student/parent support. It shows majority of the staff is there for a paycheck. If your a concerned parent you become a threat! This is a poor environment with lack of care and compassion for these students. This is critical years for a child and if the adults can't model positive behavior for these children this is not the proper establishment for anyone! Look at the scores that should be sufficient enough.
