C I Waggoner School

All three of my children attended this school, my youngest still attending. We love the Dual Language benefits and the community is great!

On November 11, 2023 I applied for the preschool assistant position. I’ve been working with kids for over 15 years and I wanted to change over and work with kids in a school setting. I was emailed from the principal on November 24, 2023 asking if I would be able to do an interview. I was so excited because I had been waiting on this moment and working in a school setting has always been a dream of mine. We scheduled the interview for November 29, 2023 at 9:30 am. I arrived to the school at 9:20 am and I let the office staff know that I was here for an interview. I had to wait a couple minutes which didn’t bother me, I was a bit early. The principal took me back to the room for the interview and the preschool teacher was also in attendance. They both asked me questions and scenarios and I responded positively and promptly. I also asked questions about the position and how does preschool work in the school setting. They were both excited about my answers and about the knowledge I provided. The principal told me that they had other interviews and would be in touch. I thanked the both of them and went about my day. On December 5,2023 she emailed me and asked me if I would prefer to work in a preschool setting or would I be interested in doing one or one. She explained she had a 1 or one position available. I responded I would be open to either and then told me the position starts January 4th and I could let my current job know. She promised me two positions and then told me she would check my references. Well she never told me that she had another candidate this whole time as well. She emailed me and told me I wasn’t picked for the position, they went with the other candidate. The principal offered me two different positions and she promised me a job before she said she had to check my references, and I asked her if I could apply for other positions and she ignored me and just told me per my references I was not picked but she led me on knowing she already had another candidate

This school utilizes seclusion and restraint on students as young as kindergarten.

School placed protective order 8/8/25 without proof. I had to call police to have access to my daughter I have had full custody of since birth. Additional, WE LIVE IN NEVADA. 8/8/25 after police i picked up my baby, said she won't be back as we dont even live in AZ. Received absence letter that included 8/8/25 the ONE day she attended, I spoke with the principal and reception! If I do not get a corrected letter in the mail I will be suing and do not believe you should trust this school with your child as they cannot verify legal documentation placing children and families at risk and FAILED to even verify the ONE day my child attended in August update letter signed by Dana Lineberger. I am following up with ever agency necessary moving forward because someone is failing at their job at Rover Elementary School.
