When your child has attended this school since K, but receive no support from staff. Staff supports outside staff more than child/parent. Doesn't care about inconvenience of a parent due to wanting to keep a good rapport with an after-school program. Yes I never thought I'd be saying this but Bella Vista isn't the school at all for African American children to attend.

Literally this is the worst school. I regret sending my daughter here. I was expecting this to be a great schools because most reviews are saying that this is the best school but it really isn’t. The teachers are literally the worst. They don’t explain good and they scream at the students if they did something wrong. The detention that they give here is just stupid like if a student did something little the teachers get mad and send them outside or to detention. My daughter was a really good student at her old school. She was a straight A student because the teacher knew how to teach the lessons in her past school but here is just not a great environment for your child to learn. My daughter tries hard in this school but because the teacher don’t explain good she doesn’t get good grades and she is really sad about it. Also this school is not a safe place. There’s so many fights and I don’t like the fact that a teacher screams at a student for something stupid. I don’t recommend this school it’s just the worst and I hate seeing my daughter cry about how terrible this school is.

teachers are nice there is very little of the teachers don't care about students
