The leadership protects misconduct and kowtows to the few ineffective teachers at Walnut Creek. The district does not support diverse or exceptional learners. One of the math teachers began bullying our son who is a gifted learner. Our son exceeded the district math benchmark, but instead of supporting him, his math teacher would pick on him in class and sarcastically pronounce in front of the class, “you already know this stuff, so you don’t need to sit through class today,” encouraging our student not to attend classes. When we brought these and other concerns to building and central administration, the principal would defend the teacher’s behavior and actually began bullying our family. During virtual instruction we witnessed teachers aggressively picking on minority Asian students. One student was having difficulty logging on to Zoom and his ELA teacher loudly announced to other teachers in the Zoom, “I don’t know what this kid wants from me.” The climate and culture are major issues behind the scenes. Apparently this district is more concerned with protecting near retirees than ensuring equity and inclusion.

I am super impressed with WLN. They did an excellent job acclimating my freshman into the school and offering all sorts of ways to get involved. My student had fantastic teachers; Dr. Hamblin is one of the best! We have been very satisfied with the administration and the caliber of students at Northern. This was a school of choice school for us and we definitely choose correctly. ~Knights Mom.

when I went there it was a great starting point in my education
