La Joya is a great school but in my personal experience with my child attending, he has gotten into multiple fights with the special educated kids. I don't know if it is his issue or the schools on why they are all getting in fights with my son. The academics here are just straight up awful the teachers look like they came off the street. 100 percent do not recommend this school in the Tolleson District any other school in the district would be a much greater option.

The teachers in the school are nice but the people are not and they inflict dumb rules and certain color bathrooms for certain classes even if they are farther. d

This school is very unique in goods but also bad ways. As a new junior I can say it was alright but I ended up moving because of how students treat each other and how fighting is common here it creates a not so good atmosphere as well with many teachers being lazy at their jobs not all but some. The good they offer many AP classes and many clubs to join and pretty decent at taking their sports seriously. I would say it’s okay but if your child is considering another school please take them out and send them somewhere else.

They are not fair and consistent with the way the students are treated. They have a poor representation with the dean of discipline. This is a racist school that only focus is on race and color very unfortunate as the school is very diverse. Very unprofessional in speaking to Parents and more so to the students. Honestly believe she hates her job. Can not believe they have an administrator working with children like this. This is not a community high school this is a " If I like you, I will let you get away with anything with warnings, if I don't be prepared to be disciplined!" I am sure that other parents feel the same especially with the school ratings. Absolutely no school spirit, and no communication with parents until hours later by then you already know what is going on by students not administration. If you can pick another school for your child to attend do so. I have another son that attended Tolleson High School and nephews at Agua Fria and all have done amazing at those schools. The teachers and the administration are very involved in the education and the student welfare. I will never recommend this school to any other family. Until new administration come onboard.
