Alpha Technology Middle School

10 close knit and friendly. Love all the staff.

So many bullies in this school, nothing being done about it besides a little talk with the student. My son has dealt with bullies in kindergarten! A child should never have to deal with that at the age of 5-6. I had a kid scratch my sons face and the teacher failed to inform me of the incident. My son was so scared to go to school he would cry when I dropped him off int he morning .Teacher said my son informing her of the bullying was him “complaining”. It is your job to protect and teach our children, if you can’t do that correctly please don’t teach. I’m at the point I’m going to have to maybe pull him out of school and enroll him somewhere else.

I am in my 6th year with Heritage Peak. It is a multi-site school, so each site has it's own personality. My site, Elk Grove, gives you the option to create a program of your liking through home schooling, site classes, or a combination. I have done a mixture of all of these over the years, and now my oldest son, a junior, is successfully taking classes at the junior college for dual credit. Like any school there are OUTSTANDING teachers , and teachers that need to be fired. Unlike traditional schools, the teachers are not union, so they lousy teachers do not stay long term, and each year the balance seems to tip more to the outstanding ones being there. I have gotten to know some of the teachers very well over the years and they TRULY have a heart for REAL teaching, which is why they are here instead of traditional schools. Like any school, success here depends on the student putting their all into it, and it really helps to have great parental support too. This is not a school for those who have no self motivation.
