Tempe Elementary Online Community

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

Please don’t! Our experience at Aguilar Elementary has been deeply disappointing. The school repeatedly failed to follow essential special education procedures and provided poor communication when issues were raised. Safeguards and data tracking were inconsistent, and our child’s IEP was not implemented as required. Despite multiple written concerns and meetings, the administration offered no clear or timely solutions. Families relying on special education services or expecting a responsive, accountable school environment should look elsewhere. I do not recommend this school

If I could give zero stars, I would. Mrs. Hamati the principal has been one of the most rigid and overbearing staff members I’ve encountered. She shows little to no understanding of individual student needs and absolutely no flexibility when it comes to circumstances that require compassion and support.Her approach is unnecessarily strict, cold, and unyielding—failing to foster a healthy or encouraging environment for students. Rather than working with families or finding solutions, she creates more tension and leaves students feeling unheard, misunderstood, and discouraged.In a role that should require empathy and communication, she consistently demonstrates the opposite. If you're looking for someone who nurtures growth and supports student well-being, unfortunately, that’s not what you’ll get here.

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.
