Mesa Verde Middle School

Wow!!! 5/10? That is ridiculous. Flory is a well maintained school, that provides excellent education, top tier teachers and the most professional administrative staff, that serves all the children that go there equally and with love. Don’t even think twice about sending your kids to Flory.Flory academy is the greatest school ever. Just ask the parents on the waiting list, who wait for months before their kids finally secure a spot. Besides the fact that flory provide precious science and technology education, Which is only offered in a handful of school in 3 counties, Flory has a great team of educators and administrators that absolutely love what they do, and the kids love being there.Let me clarify even further, with COVID vaccination finally out there, our kids were thrilled to be back in class, happy to learn and play with their friends. Our little boy is in Flory this year and it was a great experience, even with online learning half the year. Our daughter went to FLORY two years ago, and we wouldn’t even think twice to get our son on the list and into flory, which should be 10/10 rated school,As far as greatschools.org, shame on you! Diversity is definitely a negative factor on this website because other schools, that provides the exact same curriculum in neighboring cities, are rated 9/10, but provide very little diversity in the student population. Basically most of the kids are rich and white. The diversity factor is reflected as a negative on each school’s page (like it should impact patent’s decision. The greater the diversity the lower the grade). As a parent and a Moorparkian, I feel that this website is directly contributing to lowering the value of diversity rich schools, and it is shocking that this website would not take the melting pot experience value into account. It’s a disservice to schools like Flory, who truly make a difference in the community and provide remarkable education experience to all their students and their families.Thank you Flory teachers and administrators for all your hard work. We appreciate you!

There is constant bullying and physical fighting. The teachers are great and their lesson plans are mostly organized, I can’t say the same about the yard duty’s. They say things like spreading kindness is good even when they don’t spread kindness at all. When things like bullying happen they do nothing and always get you somehow in trouble. All the girls get daily dress coded and they always say that they do it in private but they truly don’t. When girls get dress coded the yard duty’s literally say quote on quote “ the boys are looking at you”. Also when you get hurt know one care like I broke my foot because the PE teacher didn’t see my note saying I couldn’t do PE, also girls came up to me and hit my arm which caused my to sprain it, then some guy also broke 4 of my fingers. All in all I would not recommend Peach Hill Academy because of the harsh environment and treatment by others.

Walnut Canyon is an amazing school with a wonderful staff. Students develop a love of learning as well as a sense of community. WC has a super PTA too so school is engaging and exciting all year long. Academically, standards are high but teachers at this school really care and you can see that in test scores!

I LOVE THIS AWESOME SCHOOL! I WISH I COULD GO BACK!

My experience at Mountain Meadows was very negative and left a lasting impact on me. Many of the teachers treated me unfairly and harshly, often embarrassing me in front of classmates instead of helping me. When I was bullied, I never felt protected or supported. Teachers sometimes went out of their way to punish me or give me detentions rather than guide me with kindness.As a child, this was extremely difficult and it made school feel unsafe instead of being a place to learn and grow. Even now as an adult, I still remember how traumatizing that environment was.I would not recommend this school to parents who want their children to feel safe, respected, and cared for.

Amazing staff and students that have a ton of love for eachother. This school has continued to develop in the past 4 years. I love Teacher's College philosophy. Where else can you see TK and K students ready books that I used to read in 3rd grade?

Santa Rosa Technology Magnet School has been a wonderful experience for my children and our family. The staff and teachers are dedicated, supportive, and genuinely invested in student success, both academically and personally.One of the things I appreciate most is the school’s focus on creating a positive and engaging learning environment. The teachers do a great job balancing strong academic expectations with creativity and hands-on learning opportunities, which keeps students motivated and involved.A huge advantage for our family has been the TK–8 structure. Having multiple siblings on one campus creates a strong sense of connection and consistency, not only for the kids but for parents as well. It truly builds a family-like community that is hard to find at schools split by grade levels.The middle school sports program is another highlight. It gives students the opportunity to be involved, build teamwork, and develop school pride at an important age. It’s been a very positive experience and adds so much to the overall school culture.I also can’t say enough about the PTO, they are absolutely amazing. Their dedication, organization, and support for both students and staff make a noticeable difference on campus. From events to enrichment opportunities, they go above and beyond to create a vibrant and supportive school environment.Communication from the school has been consistent, and I’ve always felt comfortable reaching out with questions or concerns. There is a strong sense of community on campus, and it’s clear that staff care about building relationships with students and families.Like any school, there are areas that can always continue to grow, but overall, I feel confident that my children are receiving a quality education in a supportive and connected environment. I’m grateful to be part of the SRTMS community and truly appreciate the efforts of the entire community.
