I have dealt with Avaxat for a couple of years now. They have a new principal. I thought things could not get worse for the school but it sure has. Lack of safety, lack of staff and lack of supervision for students. Some of these issues are from the district level that they refuse to address.

Absolute disgusting administrators. They bully your kids.

Teachers: Average, have had issues with grading system. COVID was a disaster. Listening to the teachers on ZOOM at home was pretty horrendous as a Parent. Math and English programs are a bit lacking, think admin should sit on a class or two. Facility: Outstanding- modern buildings, great access control, security, and monitoring by administration. Athletics: School support athletics, and has a good level of school spirit. Administration: Think new Principal is very positive. Think the Assistant Principals are approachable and available.Think this school needs to take the All students are good and deserve guidance and care approach rather than just rewarding AP type students and athletes. All kids deserve the professional guidance of a counselor- are you going to graduate, go to college, go on to vocational training, or military, do you have personal issues. The hands off approach/parent based model has many kids slip through the cracks without any assistance.I have been disappointed with multiple math teachers- being in error with grading system, not giving credit for makeup assignments, being threatened when a parent emails or follows up, accessibility outside the student is VERY POOR. Teacher honesty and integrity is average, I have seen some teachers say whatever narrative fits their view, kids first is always the best approach, that is the goal of teaching. Parents only get the negative emails, never a positive, never a hand reached out, nothing. If I could go back in time, would have went to Murrieta Valley for better school/admin atmosphere or Vista Murrieta, however that school is so large that district makes it tough to transfer. I just remember high school teachers and counselors from a different era- student first approach vs. school first approach. I give this school an overall 7 vs other schools and the great safety aspect.
